Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Mirage 3-D Instant Hologram Maker

Customer Review: illusions
Summary: 5 Stars

Simply amazing optical illusion. It is only completely effective when viewed from a range of angles - but it is completely convincing when you are viewing in this range. Objects that can be used with this size mirage are kind of small, but it is probably not worth getting the lager size mirage because of the cost. This is a nice novelty item for someone with an empty desk.

Customer Review: really cool!
Summary: 5 Stars

it works great, and makes a cool gift. anything you put in it appears to hover in mid air...3D! I gifted it last christmas, and it is still on display on their coffee table. Don't expect much though. It's two plastic dome or bowl halves, really light weight, and more of a novelty than a qualaty piece of art

Customer Review: Great illusion
Summary: 5 Stars

OK, these aren't laser generated holograms but it works great, and is a fun teaching tool. Good for science fair projects and a novel coffee table item. Product came quickly and was well packed for shipping. Had good service from this vendor.

Customer Review: Even at $40 for two pieces of plastic, this is worth it.
Summary: 4 Stars

Santa brought one of these when I was about ten, and so even though I knew it was just two pieces of plastic (two mirrored parabolic halves), the effect was neat enough that I got one for my kids thirty years later. To see a real 3 dimensional image of say, a stack of quarters, or a diamond ring, and then to put your hand right through it, is still amazing. My kids have shown all their friends. Seeing is believing, but not with this. It's overpriced at $40, but still worth it. The company also makes a 22 inch model, but those are about $1500. Getting the optics right is not easy, and that's where the expense comes in. You do have to be careful not to get fingerprints or scratch the mirrors as that degrades the image. My ten year old rates this product five stars.

Customer Review: An almost perfect illusion
Summary: 4 Stars

It's a nice gadget but the illusion strictly depends on the viewing angle. You can get an almost perfect result but only from one specific angle.
