Hi
Im looking to get my first enlarger.
I can buy a Fujimoto G70 Dichro enlarger with a 50mm and some additionals for about 120 usd.
I shoot 6x6 and an xpan which is about 24*65mm. I have a couple of questions:
1) Is this a good enlarger in general?
2) How can I figure out what enlarging lens that will fit? I guess I should look for a 80 mm to do MF. But are there different standards etc, or can you attach just about any lens?
3) I'm interested in making some really large prints. Does it matter what lens I use? In som tables it says that this or that lens is good up to 10x enlargement etc. What if I want to go larger than that?
Alternatively, I could get a durst 805 with a 80mm for about 500 usd. What do you think about that?
