    75mm Tominon in shutter as an enlarger lens?

    I have one in the Polaroid press shutter and could use a very occasional MF enlarger lens. Any chance it would be work and be decent. If so, I need a short barrel to clear some attachment screws and would need an option. Thx.

    If you can reverse it, it should be fine. This because it is made to be used as a macro lens at magnifications above 1:1, i.e., with the small subject in front of it and the large image behind it.

    That said, trying it as is shouldn't cost much.

    Thanks Dan. From the looks of it I can reverse the cells. What about a short extension tube for lens to board? I've got two attachment screws sticking down that attaches the lens board to the enlarger and the only way I can see to mount it is with a short extension tube.

    Don't see why not, but the shorter the better.
