I’m thinking of converting a monorail 4x5 into an enlarger and chewing over preliminary ideas. At most I’d want to do 16x20 prints from 4x5. Would one or two of you kindly measure your 4x5 enlarger for me and let me know the following?:
Height of neg carrier from baseboard when set up for 16x20 with 150 mm lens;
Angle of column/frame to baseboard;
Horizontal distance of lens centre from column;
Height of column/frame.
Although I used to own an Omega 4x5, I rather fancy the Beseler frame from the point of view of simplicity and rigidity, but I’m open to ideas.
Many thanks in advance.
Barry
