Ilford multigrade 500H system - Anything to look out for?
I'd like to know anything about issues with this system and things to check if aquiring one...

I thought you already had a MG500 system? - must have got you confused with someone else.

I used an Ilford 500 system on a DeVere at college many moons ago. I keep telling myself; "Say NO to enlargers"

The main thing to look out for is that the system is complete. By this I mean that it has all three mixing boxes with their relevant locating plates, head, transformer and control pad. The foot-switch is a useful addition but I have never found the probe to be of any help.

You need to check whether the lamps are still made. I know one of the Multigrade systems aren't. Alex

The lamps are still available but can be pricey.
