    I sent them an email time ago and the (highly delayed, and after two or more attemps) answer was the model 3 were out of production.
    So I decided to make my own one, that is currently working.

    I think in a basic sence he started out with a great product. But it has kind of stayed a little too basic as the loss of the model 3 and lack of integration with other enlarger models like the Beselers is kind of a bummer.

    Now these folks on the other hand might be on to something, they are sending me one of their enlargers for outreach at an event that will give them a lot of good exposure:

    I was not keen on his iPod integration, which quickly will become obsolete or 'Legacy'. LOL

    He most likely became discouraged as there is little market, what with most film users, scanning and printing.

    In my opinion Beseler is a better chassis than Omega, not best.

    If you want a great 4x5 chassis, get DeVere or CB7

    On the positive side, just like film cameras, the obsolete iPads will be plentiful and cheap

    Exciting yes. iPhone to paper print. I'm sure that the results will be almost as good as with a Diana-like lens! :>)

    An honest question: Is this a true statement about "most film users"?

    Not my experience here locally among the LF'ers I know, but maybe I'm just hanging out with the wrong crowd.
