Hello Peter, you praise me to much . I am enlarging my negatives, of course. I use an old enlarger Magnifax, model Ia, produced by Meopta Přerov(Prerau auf Deutsch... omg, Prerau in German ) in forties. It's very simple enlarger for films and plattes maximal 6,5x9cm, with condenser. a good piece of metal for photographical reactionaries as I am, but not very comfortable. For bigger negatives I have a monstre-enlarger - Magnitaurus 10x15(it weights more than 150 pounds ). And what I have for 35mm is not important

Tomas, welcome to FADU, your English is much better than my Czech and I am a great fan of Josef Sudek.

It has a lightly wide-angle tessar 9cm/6,3 in compur shutter. Next week I can show some images of this camera and some ones what I have made with.

Thomas,
Many thanks for the explanation about the 6x9; it still sounds interesting to me and it would be good to see some images from it sometime.

Neil.
