Hi Pietro and welcome to FADU. I have a Durst 605 and while I have never tried to make a 20x24 inch with it and with a 50mm lens I think I would struggle to enlarge a print to that size but as Bob has said you can turn the column. The other way is an extension for the column which is available for the 605 and it might be the same extension for the 601.Finding one might be difficult

A wide angle might manage it as well. What can you manage at maximum height with a 50mm lens? If it is close to 20x24 then a wide angle might be OK.

The cheapest solution has to be reversing the column as nothing new is required.

Finally bear in mind that unless your 35mm negative has very high resolution the print at 20x 24 will lose quite a lot of definition.

Let us know what you decide and how the print turns out

Mike
