Thanks! We do our best!

I like the vigorous aeration in the large format washer. You folks have a lot of energy, nice to see such enthusiasts.

Yes, excellent news! Analog photography is NOT dead and we are a few in the world to work at the max possibilities of it;-)
Here is my 20x24 Argentum camera, a very nice one, i manipulate it completely alone: http://www.galerie-photo.com/travail...bre-50x60.html
BTW Anton, you use the 770mm xxl Schneider? I have the 550mm.

Great Alec! You are very welcome to St.Petersburg to try to enlarge some negatives, if you wish!
We have the whole kit: 550, 1100 and very rare 770mm Fine Art lens.

This is absolutely fantastic.

The enlarger is truly fantastic.

I look forward to sending you a couple of my 20x24 negs to print! We will have to talk. Congratulations Anton! All your hard work paying off!

You could also use the enlarger as an ensmaller, and make 8x10 prints from 20x24 negatives. You almost have to, just to say you did...

Haha! That's exactly what we were thinking off - enSMALLER!!! )))

When I commented I hadn't realized that you are that lucky guy with the incredible 20x24 enlarger. I want one along with a 20x24 camera too. I am delighted that it seems possible to order a new 20x24 camera and enlarger in 2018. Maybe if I sell my apartment in California I can afford to join the elite club of people with these awesome cameras and very impressive enlargers.

The funny thing - that inside the enlarger we found 3 plugs. Mr. Heiland installed it just in a case for something. So in principal you can live inside, plenty of space to sleep, 3 plugs for a kettle, smartphone and reading lamp ))
Seriously, It's absolutely amazing that in 2018 the film is SO alive!

Now all you need is a solid selfie stick capable of holding that camera at arm's length.

Yep, normally everything we do for the instagram! ))

Hello Anton,

I am in France and i know St Petersburg a little! You are very lucky to have the 3 lenses!

What about the sharpness of the 770mm on the edge? I found the 550mm is ultra sharp at the center but smooth on the edge for landscape...

It would make the 20x24 negatives much more economical to print! And really, isn't economy what 20x24 is all about?

Thanks for the video. Who makes the gadget that rotates the Jobo drum?
