Hey,
I was just given a Kodak 5x7 enlarger (looks like one of those Elwood? enlargers. The orig. lamp housing looks like a hair salon dryer from the 60s) and an Aristo cold light lamp.
The lamp says Aristo EK-SP but a google search (and forum search) offers me nothing. Looking inside I see that the lamp says W-55.
From what I've read, cold light heads produce more light as the exposure gets longer (to a certain point). This makes me think that there's a specific timer that I should obtain to compensate for that issue. But I'm not exactly sure where to look or what to look for.
Also, I seem to remember someting about needing to put a filter of some sort in front of the light source before I use a standard (ilford) filter set. Is this the case?
Thanks
T
