I neglected to say that my Olympus Zuiko 50/1.8 lens is the best "loupe" I've ever had, and lens can be had for $25. Turn it around and look through the back and you get great magnification and quality.

There's a Vivitar projector that has a little flip-up door on top. Voila! a slide viewer, no magnification, of course. It cuts out a step and lets you decide if you want to put the slide in the carrousel. I'm not too sure of the quality of this projector, although I've found no fault so far. It's even auto-focus. The main criterion when I bought it was cost; it's nice and cheap.

How elaborate a unit are you looking for? I have one at home that you can
load 36 slides into an view them one at a time. It is rather big and
bulky though. I also have a small Agfa unit that you view one at a time.
It has a small lens that magnafies the image. Kodak has a very nice
little unit that is very compact, but does not magnify the image at all,
but actaully works very well, especially when combined with a loupe.
