Beseler 45V-Xl enlarger
with courtesy of Daniel A in Florida, it is now confirmed that my 8x10 conversion kit for Beseler 45 M and Durst 138s, fits perfect on Beseler. 45 V-XL model.

this is the new generation with all improvements from previous models.
more light in the corners from extra leds in the light head. less light fall off in the corners
new diffuser lens special for led lamps that gives extra 1/2 stop light.
the best materials and factory craftmanship.
i am proud to say that all users are happy with my hobby project.

the kit comes complete with :

1 x light head with 53 pcs 3 w leds
2 x led drivers 90 - 240V mounted on top in a cage
1 x pyramidal stub on adapter / mounting plate
1 x negative holder for up to 8x10 neg with 2 glasses ( book type)
1 x light seal in replace of the 8x10 filmholder
(when you use original 4x5 holder for smaller formats)
screws for assembling
10 spare bulbs,
1 spare led driver
no lens included
conversion is made for 240mm lens, Beseler used to supply the APO Gerogon F9 - 240mm lens.
some people also use gerogon or G-claron in 210 mm .
the kit it is 20 mm higher and very slightly heavier than the original beseler condenser head.

dont worry on the F9 iris, the kit has plenty of light
vertical enlargemants is more than 20x24"on the board
cold diffused light - no need for a noisy cooling fan.
all parts of lazer cut steel and stainless material,
finished in Antracit - grey non reflecting paint
you can use the original Beseler film holder for 4x5" and smaller without removing the 8x10 kit.

all you you need is a screwdriver for assembly. less than 10 min work !

thereafter it only takes few minutes ( 4 screws !) to change back to original enlarger head if desired.

remove the 2 metal locking sliders for the Beseler condenser head and use the same 4 threads for mounting the conical part. on the enlarger..
that is all ! and
your Beseler 45 remain 100% original , no alteration at all!

todays price is 540 euro
plus shipping

kindly

Shipping was 233 euro to Florida and it took its sweet time once it landed in the US, thanks to USPS but it was really well packed.

I'm holding off until funds allow, hopefully early next year!
I do have one question though about the lights. Apologies for my ignorance but what lights does the head use and are spares (if needed) available? Thanks

I can answer that, the light the enlarger uses is white LEDs and Klaus sends spare LEDs that look somewhat like this

hi fotomark
sorry i did not see your question.
usually i get a mail when i get a comment in my thread. obviously it fails again!
you can use a glass negative too.
when i ship out the kit, the glasses are un glued to avoid cracking in abused shipments.
so you have two possibilities, dont glue in the two 2 mm glasses or buy an extra film holder without glasses. it is 80 euro without glass.
