Folks,
I am seriously considering joining a local community darkroom next year to get back into printing. I've been shooting film but just scanning it for years and really want to do darkroom work again.
The darkroom has a collection of Beseler 23C enlargers which obviously don't do 4x5 - but they also have some Omega enlargers that will do 4x5. They only have 50mm lenses, though.
I got a Tominon 135mm f/4.5 lens from an APUGer some time ago and have used it on a 4x5 camera. But I know it was originally used on a copy stand - so I was wondering if I could mount this lens to the Omega lens board and use it as an enlarging lens? Has anyone tried it?
Thanks!
