But all in all, it works like it should. Just don't the idea this will make you an instant artist. Well built and sturdy. ## Features - Please watched the instructional video on left before you buy.

It's only a small mirror and a piece of glass** A: Making one of these is like doing brain surgery with a pocket knife, and that "piece of glass" is pretty special. If you can make them cheaper and sell them for less, you should. **Q: Can I have a small 3 by 5 picture and draw it to be 8 by 10 drawing and enlarge it on a larger paper while I draw** A: This isn’t going to turn you into a landscape artist by any means but you can make still life or portraits with these size restrictions. What it sounds like you want is a projector and they can get expensive. Also, you have to work in a darkened room to consider. There are few answers to the trace art problem that are practical. I have a LED light box and that is so far the best I could do. I bought acrylic plexiglass panes in different sizes that are marked for framing art onto paper proportionately. These you could make for yourself with a plexiglass pane and a marker with some instruction. The best way to learn to draw is honestly by doing it and practicing a lot like an artist does to develop hand-eye coordination through conditioning and time. Lessons are nice too if you can afford them. The camera Lucidia is an expensive, frustrating way to get started drawing in my opinion but if you have money to throw at trying this, by all means, have a go at it, but don't say I didn't warn you, and who knows, maybe you'll be among those who love it. **Q: Can I use this with a sketchbook or clipboard outside?** A: You need to attach it to a firm surface. If you have a small table you can take outside it would be fine **Q: Can you use this sitting?** A: Yes, you clamp the device to a desktop and can use it sitting down. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Art Tool *by C***Y on February 23, 2026* A remarkable tool for art study and practice.

Well built and sturdy. ### ⭐ Didn't Work For Me *by L***7 on August 25, 2024* I chose this after reading all the reviews - it seems most people had to get used to the drawing part. I didn't have a problem with getting used to the drawing part. My problem started with not opening this for months because a friend of mine had cancer and I put my art aside while spending time with my friend, so I didn't notice until it was too late that the shader that was supposed to be provided was not provided. I figured "not a big deal" and went on to trying to use it. No matter how far/close the item I wanted to draw was, or how high/low the NeoLucida was set, the item NEVER changed size. I tried something I had taken a picture of with my phone - stayed small regardless of adjusting all parts involved. Sent it to my laptop, enlarged the photo, it still stayed small. The directions show that the further the NL is from your paper the larger the picture will be - this was not my reality. I tried it closer just to see if I was working with too small an object/pic, and nope, still the same small size. Very disappointed. If I want tiny drawings this will be great, but anything "normal" or larger it was a waste of my money. Maybe you have to have a GIANT item to copy. I tried small (3" X 5"), medium (8" X 10"), and enlarging one section of the picture to 10" X 15" and it never got bigger than 2" wide so the height didn't matter. ## Frequently Bought Together - NeoLucida XL: a See-Through Camera Lucida Drawing Tool - Secret Knowledge (New and Expanded Edition): Rediscovering the Lost Techniques of the Old Masters --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/59374918-neolucida-xl-a-see-through-camera-lucida-drawing-tool](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/59374918-neolucida-xl-a-see-through-camera-lucida-drawing-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
