Came across this enlarger at a consignment store this weekend. So far, I haven’t come across this specific model in any online searches. Looking for an ID— looks similar to some 70s Focomat or something if it even is an enlarger. Missing a lens sadly.

You mix up things... I said... thinking it was not a enlager, but a microscope (SLR) camera.

But at enlarging your photo I realized I erred myself. It rather seems some reprographic (SLR) camera. See that tape-measure at the left.

I did not read your 2nd post when I corrected my reply.

As said microscop-camera as such came at once to my mind, more so as that thing was filed at my archive. But I forgot that name and thus could not find it at my archive. And as said that tape-measure confused me, I did not remember it, and today I thought it to be related to the baseboard. Thus my idea of repro-camera. But I overlooked that the tape-measure may relate to the bellows extension instead...

I wish I had a better memory.

This must be an earlier Aristophot given the blue-ish Leitz logo. I see one on the net with the round red logo and a Zeiss 100mm lens.

Description:

The Leitz Aristophot is a versatile photographic apparatus for photomicrography and photomacrography. Due to its interchangeability of various attachments the Aristophot can be used for many other applications such as a copy stand. Zeiss 100mm f/6.3 lens included

Might want to grab that metal sx70 instead.

Sorry to desillusionize you... It got a plastic and just galvanized body. (Something introduced by Pentacon before).
