With regret I need to sell my beautiful Leitz Focomat Autofocus V35 enlarger to make room for new business equipment. I don't do much 35mm work these days, so I would like this to find a good home.
I purchased this from a collector several years ago who had cared for it very well. I used it for printing weddings and it was a joy to use. I had wanted one of these enlargers all my life, but at a cost of thousands I couldn't afford it in my younger days.
I checked the Focotar 2.8 40mm lens and it is still immaculate as is the negative carrier which had a lens cloth sandwiched in between the glass carrier to prevent damage.
The autofocus works a treat, however it might be worth checking the alignment when you raise the column. It's been a few years since I used it last.
A fully working enlarger in fantastic dust free condition. Stored in a cool working environment free from damp.
I also might have a few spare bulbs lying around for the buyer.
Collection only please from Cambridge UK. I'd rather not post a sensitive piece of equipment.
Easy access from M11 or A14 roads.
Cash on collection or bank transfer on arrival.
ÂŁ475 or nearest offer. No dealers please.
