Enlarger I have recently recieved my Fathers old Durst 300 enlarger built in the 60's. I even found the manual on line. Should get it in a couple of days. It works, but was woundering if it was possible to get a head for it that can handle 4x5 instead of 35mm. My son has a senior project and he has chosen to buil a 4x5 pin hole camera and we are looking forwad to making prints ourselves. Mike

Howdy Mike. As you may know, Durst stopped making enlargers around the end of July this year. :<((( I know. I was bummed too. BUT...they have an online shop http://www.durst-online.com/ and a number of places on their site where you can contact them. I don't think the 300 will accept a 4x5 holder but you can ask Durst. Also, remove the lamp housing, like to change a bulb and measure the base. As I recall the 300 will only accept carriers for up to 2 1/4 film. Lastly, post your question in the darkroom forum at APUG.org . I'll lay odds someone knows the answer right off hand.
