Up for grabs is my Omega C700 Color Print Maker condenser enlarger. Doesn't have a color head but is labeled as such for use with color filters in its drawer. This is a fantastic beginner/amateur enlarger, it can print medium format as well.
Its in excellent condition, with some slight staining on its base board, but all adjustments are smooth. Bellows and focusing are fine and lock in place with out slippage. Comes with a Rodenstock 50mm 3.5 lens, with some slight haze. Printable but I would recommend getting another lens cheaply. 35mm negative carrier in great shape is included. Condensers are spotless, and bulb is correct wattage and bright.
I only ask that this be your first darkroom, I want this gift to be for someone that truly wants to get into the world of printing. Please no collectors, and don't take this if you are not planning to do any prints with it, and have it sit until you build your darkroom later on. This should be for someone who can really use it NOW.
I am located in Brooklyn, NY. A few of these are going on craigslist for $50-75+ in my area, probably not even in this great of condition. New still being sold for $300! I dont want to ship it, so please come get it. Its not too big and can easily be carried on the train if you don't have a car.
PM me with a good reason why I should give it to YOU!
