Hey guys! I am such a newbie when it comes to the darkroom. I've never done anything in one, but I am attempting to teach myself. I was talking with my photojournalism professor and telling him how I wanted to build a darkroom and the only thing really holding me back was that enlargers are so expensive. It turns out that another professor in the journalism school had an enlarger and GAVE it to me. That made my year! It's old, but it still works! It didn't come with a manual, and I delicately played with it until I got it working fully. However, I have a few questions...
1 - What is your opinion on the enlarger that I have? It's a 1970s model Omega (I think it's B&W) B600 Condenser Enlarger.
2 - There is a piece that slides in above the big lens at the top, what is that for?
3 - Can I make B&W prints from a color negative with a B&W enlarger?
4 - I have some pictures scanned in/digi pics that I would like to make prints of. Could I print out a negative image onto clear (projector) sheets and make a print from that?
Thanks guys, any advice/answers are appreciated! :heart:
