D6 Versus Other Omega Enlargers

doberman said:

Is the D-6 cat.No. 404-302, Mod. No. 4034-01. MFD. by Simmons Bros any different than the super D-6 as mentioned in the beginning of this thread, if so how. I have an opportunity to pick one up rather cheap.

Thank you much!

So, that is the older one. Like a deluxe D2 without the need for the cones and a longer column.

I just bought a D6 with a dichro head, does anyone know how difficult it is to convert it to a regular condenser setup?

There's an upgraded condenser system that was made for the D6. Like the D2v, it's variable condenser. But, the top lens that could be adjusted in the D2v from one shelf to another is adjusted using a knob. I have one of these, but mine is missing the condenser lenses and the light-source.
