The projection lenses of PROCOM-2 provide a range of magnifications from 3X to 72X. Magnifications up to 140X can be obtained with an optional lens. Thus the projected data can be registered to either local or regional detail on a map, interpretive overlay or digitizing tablet. The zoom capability also makes it easy to instantly enlarge the projected image to study detail or reduce it to confirm context. Reductions of the data can be achieved by an intermediate photographic step with no significant loss of detail.
PROCOM-2's copy camera system will accept any 35 mm camera with interchangeable lenses. This system enables the user to photographically record the projected image and registrations.
The unique design of PROCOM-2 allows up to 4 or 5 interpreters to simultaneously examine a projected image. The PROCOM-2 can be quickly adjusted to project onto a wall or screen for larger groups and yet retain its capabilities to magnify and scan. This is particularly valuable for use in the classroom.
