<p>Hi,<br /><br />I am trying to set up a darkroom and have been on the lookout for an enlarger for a while now, I want to develop and print 35mm and maybe medium format in the near future but that's not a priority right now<br />I have the chance to purchase a meopta opemus 6 for 200usd (shipping included), its in great condition. From what I have read its a sturdy enlarger, good workhorse. <br />I also recently came across a leica focomat 1c in the same price range, but it has no filter drawer, and I'll need to buy a lens for it as well.<br />I don't know much about other makes, I am just starting out and wanted some advice on which enlarger to go for, keeping in mind shipping which doubles the cost in most cases.<br /><br /><br /></p>

<p>There is a nikkor lens available for extra. </p>

<p>Hi,<br> I have the opportunity to buy a Leica/Leitz Focomat 1a, although I know that the Focomat Ib, II onwards are highly regarded, I haven't been able to find much information on the Focomat 1a, its features, limitations and performance. <br> The column and baseboard is included but not the focotar lens. <br> Any help would be appreciated!<br> Thank you.</p>
