Camera lucidas used to be more widely carried in art supply stores and have fallen in and out of popularity over the years. Consumers might even be willing to overlook all the before mentioned problems (lighting, Size, Stability,) except for the fact that camera lucidas have been so over priced for what they could do. Artists are used to seeing price tags of $375 or more for the frustrating little devices of the past.
It is true that the optics for prism lucidas are expensive, but they are not any better for the extra cost. And some camera lucidas are just tremendously overpriced for what you get.
The LUCID-Art is the best camera lucida ever built, solves all the problems with the traditional camera lucida and has one of the lowest price tags.
