Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
We have two of these enlargers in our camera club''s darkroom. They are in very heavy use by over 30 members of our club. The previous two wre the same model and were used for 10 years by us and are used still, as we sold other to a pro furnishing his own darkroom and the other to another camera club. The enlarger is well built, durable and very easy to use. Our enlargers are equipped with colour heads, which are also well suited in printing with B&W multicontrast papers. This is a no nonsense, practical, heavy duty photographic tool made to last and work hard.

Strengths:
Practical design and features. Well built and durable. Heavy and big enough to print sharp.

Weaknesses:
It is quite big for a home darkroom. Then again this really is not a weakness.

Similar Products Used:
Durst 607, Leitz Focomat, Meopta

Customer Service:
Does it work when needed, which is happily not very often.
