For those of you that have that enlarger what's the smallest that you can print? Another member and I are wondering because neither the Rodagon 240mm nor the Apo Gerogon 240mm are able to print 11x14 or smaller. The enlarger focuses the image at 11x14 but there is a strong vignette there.
The attached image shows the Apo Gerogon 240mm projecting an image on an 11x14 sheet.
Also is there a pdf of the 810v-xl somewhere or could anyone with one post a picture of the lens selection/mounting? I’m wondering if it says anything about print sizes.
What size neg?

8x10. The enlarger doesn’t seem able to make anything smaller than 13x17 or so.

Well that makes sense, thank you for the link! Playing around I found out that my 150mm will cover just fine an 11x14 from an 8x10 negative.
Height and print times might be an issue but to my surprise it covers.
My 8X10 or 5X7 Elwoods have a factory option cast alu 14" nose cone lens extension for making prints smaller than the negative.
