The more magnification, the closer the working distance. If you want to have your cake and eat it too, order an Optivisor LX with a comfortable working distance, and order an Optiloupe that you can occasionally flip down to view objects at a higher magnification but a closer focal distance. If you ever decide that you need your work to be at a different focal distance, you can always order a different Optivisor lens plate, which affixes easily.
