Default Windows "magnify" program substitute

Does anyone know of a program for Windows that magnifies what's under
the cursor, like Windows' "Magnify" utility, but reports RGB levels, or
even allows individual channels to be turned on and off, or even a
levels-type adjustment?

TIA,

Capture One does this.

Pixie will give you the colors, but doesn't meet your magnification
requirement. You may still find it useful:

"...it will tell you the hex, RGB, HTML, CMYK and HSV values of that
colour."

I haven't seen the latest versions, but the older Capture One I have
only does this for it's own window. Does it now do it for anything on
the desktop?

Basic Zoom/Magnifier with RGB display:
http://www.gipsysoft.com/zoomplus/
or a colorpicker + magnifier:

Channel/Level control is more an editor's function.
