And while there are apps, that can make screen gray, the do not refIect light. Very sad, so my hand is probably the best accessory I usually have on reach. I meant my comment as joke, because of your avatar saying 18 % gray. I am really curious, how many of us use the gray card. I do have some...

You forgot the 18 % gray card :-)

Sandpaper see above, but must work in the direction of film movement, especially on the rollers.

Nice lens. But I have found it too big. I regret buying it in the end, it changed the character of the camera. Big and heavy comparing original Rokkor. Barely use it.

Anyway, Ilford asks its customers, especially those who shoot with compact autoexposure and autofocus cameras, to expose this film at 3200. There is a great responsibility in that and it doesn't seem to me that it's just marketing.

It lowers a contrast of the fix grade paper a little, about half of a step to the softer grade. But it significantly reduces an intensity of the light too.

Yes, only a frosted glass in a rounded metal frame with locks. One has to remove the light head and place it over the condensor.

OK, I can be wrong, what I remeber, my Axomat had a diffusion element too, I used it to soften the light. But in my case it had to be put over the condenser.

Hi Carlos, the color head was optional (Edit: they have been sold in two different sets) for Opemus line too, so not all have it, as you can see in auction sites, you are lucky to have one. All "modern" Meopta enlargers have a condenser. The Axomat has a simple condenser, the Opemus has a two...

@awty: Lovely image!
