S/N: 405061 (EL Nikkor) enlarger: 012884
- A versatile Fujimoto VR70 enlarger & Copy Stand
- Checked and tested, all good to use for 35mm printing.
- This was/is a sophisticated enlarger with built in Timer,
and Sensor for determining the exposure of both B&W and Colour prints - I have no instructions for how the sensor works, if it still does,
or if it needs some additional part/s (there is an empty sensor socket, 5-pin DIN, on the front panel) - The timer works but is broken on the x10 second control knob,
it currently works at 50 seconds, this could be fixed by someone who knows how to - The ‘Light’ switch in the centre of the panel switches the light on and off,
count the seconds via a metronome or a darkroom clock - All three colour controls (on the head) work well: cyan,
magenta and yellow offer settings for use of Multigrade filter (contrast) values,
settings are found from Ilford or your paper manufacturer of choice - The enlarger offers illumination up to 6×7 formats but you would need the
appropriate negative holder for larger than 35mm & an appropriate lens. - A 35mm negative holder is included
- Comes with Nikon’s EL NIkkor 50mm f/2.8 high quality 6-Element enlarging lens
- The lens is clear and clean, no fungus, haze or scratches.
- The enlarging head can be removed from the column bracket,
a camera can be substituted and this makes an excellent Copy Stand, as shown - We can supply lots of other darkroom equipment if needed; e.g. safelight,
print easel, tongs, Multigrade filters, contact printer, paper, chemicals,
dryers, etc. Please ask, we are a real camera shop in Liverpool, look us up! - This is a large enlarger, careful packing and shipping is quite a challenge (usually two boxes).
- We can ship this but collection would be preferred.
