Hey everyone! I was wondering if any of you have the prices for loupes from various companies? They don't like to show their prices online. Specifically 3.5-4.5 mag surgitel, orascopic, dfv, and any others that you think are great options. Thanks!

I believe DFV 2.5 are $945 with no light, any frame, with student discount.

Surgitel 3.5 was around $1300, returned those for Lumadent's 3.5 for $445.

DFV 3.5x/4.5x EF (same price) were $1535 + tax/shipping with no light. I got a light separately for $350.

You're paying for the optics, which are second only to zeiss. Germans love their optics. And these are ground Schott glass blanks.

Thanks everyone! Does anyone know where they would rank companies including price, magnification and weight for ttl?

I came to promote LumaDent! I got 3.3 flip-ups (personal preference, not everyone likes them) and a light for $859. They are a great company with awesome customer service! Don, the owner, frequents SDN loupes threads.

If anyone is interested I'm selling my Heine 2.5x loupes i used during dental school. PM me for details and pictures. I'm asking $600, they are in good shape, you will need to get a new strap. I have moved on and purchased a 3.5x.
