Hi,
I realize there are numerous threads on Apug about grain focusers so I apologize in advance for another one, but I'm looking for a specific focuser I have seen either through a link from here or from a random online search & can no longer find it.

The focuser stands upright on the paper/easel which would alleviate some back strain. Its also completely clear from what I remember. I believe its sold by a company in the UK that also sells other darkroom/photographic supplies but the name escapes me. If anyone here has any idea where I can find this, please provide a link so I can purchase one & I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for your help everyone.

It's called a Hocus Focus and is made by Nova.

Postage & minimum order charges make it prohibitive for US photographers to buy them from the UK manufacturer, but if you can get a UK APUG member to buy one for you the actual postage on the item is very low UK/US. I was approached two or three years ago by a member and and asked to do this for him, I'm not back in the UK until April or I'd help you myself.

Oh and they are brilliant, I bought one for myself at the same time.

Ian

Thanks so much Ian! This is exactly what I needed. Are there any UK Apuggers in the house who can help me get one of these? Of course I would cover cost & shipping as well as a handling fee for you.
