[Emmalberto]

Can someone advice on the very best lenses on 50, 80 and 90/100mm to be used on DURST 805 enlarger?

Thanks

Easiest to find will be Componon S in Europe, and they are excellent lenses, available in all those sizes.

I tend to favour the Rodenstock Rodagon-N

However both the Rodagon or Componon-S are excellent lenses

I also have had some mixed experiences with buying second hand enlarging lenses - therefore I would recommend buying new ones if you can afford them - http://www.robertwhite.co.uk/product.asp?P_ID=1868&PT_ID=444

The enlarging lens is the most important lens in your camera system as all of your images go through this one lens

Good luck
