6 months ago,no 12,I hsd a Durst L1200 for sale. try to get oone of those.They are built like a tankand go for relatively low money. You won't be sorryuntil you need to sell it again.

I agree with Ralph, a Durst is really the only good alternative to a De Vere (in Europe), keep your eyes open. Now your a subscriber widen your wanted advert.

5x4 enlargers are around at good prices, a little patience and you'll get what you want.

I have one for free, but it would be a long swim to come and get it. Sorry.

Hi there,

Ed Bray on the UK analogue website has a pretty tasty De Vere for sale:

http://www.film-and-darkroom-user.org.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=9631

Would require a trip down to Plymouth but looks well worth it.

For sale, my Devere 507 Dichroic Enlarger with 5x7 AN Glass Carrier, 4x5 Glassless and AN Glass Carriers, 35mm, 6x6, 6x7 - 6x9 MF Glassless Frames )can be used with a AN Glass too). 500Watt Stabilised Transformer along with Devere Timer and some additional spare lamps, 210mm, 150mm, 105mm lenses. 2 Blade RR Beard Easel (20" x 24") and can include some other 'Silver Darkroom' useful items too.

This would need to be collected from Plymouth (it will fit in a Zafira, Just, I know as that's how I go it home) but a van would probably be better. £400 will get you this lovely behemoth.

Also for sale is my RH Designs Stopclock Pro and Zonemaster II Exposure Analyser (this is the ultimate in exposure meter/timers). It comes with Safelight Plug, Devere Transtab Enlarger Lead (costs an additional £35), Footswitch, Manual. I will accept £165 for the Stopclock Pro should anyone like it.

The Zonemaster II (was upgraded last year to the latest version by Richard). comes with its Sensor, lead to connect it to the StopClock Pro, Manual and external power supply (costs and additional £29 god alone know why). I will accept £145 for the Zonemaster II.

Should anyone be interested in purchasing both the above items together (which is how they were designed to be used), I will accept £260 for the pair which is less than the new price of the ZoneMaster II alone (without mains adapter) and £380 less than all items included if bought new from Secondhand Darkroom Supplies.

The prices for the Stopclock Pro and Zonemaster II do not include P&P or Paypal fees.

Try to find one of the LPL 4x5 enlargers with either the VCCE or Dichro heads. You can usually find them used very reasonably. Probably the best enlarger made other than a Durst or Devere with great parts availability and service/repair potential, and you won't need all of your friends to help you move it home (just one). I have a 5x7 Durst and 2 4x5 LPL's (4500-II & 4550XLG) and would not trade them for anything (other than maybe another Durst). I actually prefer the smaller LPL over the larger one! Thankfully when I bought my Durst 24 years ago, it came complete with all the goodies needed to use it. My local lab offered to give me a Devere 504 but since it had an inoperative closed loop head I would have to come up with a head for it and decided it just wasn't worth the bother. Finding parts for Durst or Devere can be a real time consuming challenge and you could use that time better photographing or printing instead of scanning the net. L
