On Friday I helped someone pick up some stuff and among other things, I sort of picked up a darkroom of stuff.
Among the stuff is a Durst M605 Colour enlarger, which works. It is missing a baseboard, but that can be easily fixed. I could possibly help with that.
I'm not saying it is brilliant, but the basics are there and everything works. I know this as I hooked things up and switched the colour head on and off with the supplied timer and power supply; works well.
There are two lenses, an EL Nikon f/4 50mm for 35mm and a Komuron-s f/5.6 75mm for 6x6 film. I think the Komuron is not too good at all, looks a bit dirty so I wouldn't rely on that , but the Nikon lens looks reasonable; meaning the enlarger is ready to go for 35mm film.
If someone wishes to start out and would like this enlarger and maybe enough stuff to start developing film and doing prints, then I've probably got you covered. If you are brand new to film, I can give you some tuition in my darkroom to get you going.
If you need transport for the enlarger and associated stuff, I can probably help out as well. I know what it is like to not have wheels as at some stage in my life I was much younger and penniless.
Attached are some images of the enlarger, in one picture the enlarger is switched on, you can see the coloured light emanating from the negative stage, which is open.
