Durst AC 707
Hello
Does anyone know if the Durst AC 707 enlargers, colour and BW, take the same attachments, - neg carrier, lenses and holder, masks etc? My Autocolor has died, and I thought it would be easier to find a new one so my bits and pieces fitted, rather than buy a different make or model, and have to search the net for the parts to fit the new one. I've seen a BW one for sale, but will need to wait until after New Year before I can phone them about it, but in the meantime it would be great if I could get some advance info. Thanks everyone. |

Hello Shane, I have the Durst L1200, L900 and M805 series enlargers most with diffuser and condenser heads and I can happily confirm that all parts are interchangeable within a series and sometimes across series for particular formats.
However I don't have your specific enlarger.

Hi. The bulb holder has cracked with the heat over the years, so can't hold the bulb in properly, so I get flickering light, or none at all. It's a sealed unit, so unlikely I'll be able to find a replacement. Also, the cog wheel that adjusts the head up and down the column has almost lost all its teeth. Only about 3 or 4 left, so that will need replacing too. I've had it 17 years, and it was secondhand then, so it's lasted me well for the £300 it cost, which included all the accessories and 2 Rodenstock lenses. Can't get bargains like that anymore.

Thanks MartyNL. That's encouraging.
