Default Hello, everyone!

I've read and post on APUG, found this site thru the Leica Forum. Have been doing serious photography since I was 19 (now I'm 66). I have a small home darkroom with a mighty Durst Micromat M35, a Focomat 1c, a Valoy 2, plus about 6 other pro enlargers, but those are my favorites. I also have about 30 top enlarging lenses for 35mm, incl. 2 Focotar-2s, and my favorite, a 50mm 3.5 Komuranon-S. I shoot as much as I can w/a Nikon N80 now and the wonderful nikon 28-105AF. I also have a Contax G1&G2 outfit w/5lenses. I do have health and financial problems which limit my activity, though. Let"s all keep film shining bright!

Hello Chip, and welcome to FADU, a paradise for serious and friendly photographers! I once heard about somebody who converted an enlarger into a camera - sure you must have the necessary spare parts to that
