Subject: [SgFreecycle] OFFER: 8 x 10 Enlarger for B&W and Color

I am posting this again and I hope the the person who will take this enlarger will really use it!! Bad karma will happen to the person who takes it to re-sell!
Its a DE VERE 5108 DICHROMAT and its for 8 x 10 negatives. If you are not shooting with 8 x 10, then forget it cos you cannot use for other sizes. The enlarger is quite big and will need 2 people to move it and further more, you will need a van or a truck.
I have NO TIME to answer a million questions and would appreciate a firm date and time for collection!!
Thanks.

i think it's for 8X10 film. u can't use it for 35mm nor medium format. not enlarger that prints 8X10 but a large format enlarger.

the person might have thought that 35mm enlarger to do 8X10 prints.

correct me if i'm wrong.

i think the post is really mislead, i really thought it is the enlarger that capable of doing 8 x 10 hand print.

I do not think the post is misleading.

when we mention 35mm enlarger, is really mean the enlarger is only can take up up to 35mm film. a 45 enlarger, is only can take up up to 4x5 film, not saying the size of paper output.

you can project any enlarger to a wall, so you can make larger print, regardless what is the size of the enlarger.

hope this 8x10 enlarger able to find a good home.

The 8X10 enlarger normally project the image on the wall, the print paper you use normally roll paper and you need a machine to process the paper, when I was working in one of the professional lab 10 over years ago, the lab had a few of these projectors.

why don't you find a school to donate it to?

Lasalle, Nafa, maybe objectifs or a local visual arts society?

i'd think they would put it to much better use.

karma works, but need to guide one.

#1. Is Not My Enlarger, just happen to come across this and pass the words around.

#2. Is Not a small Enlarger, you CAN'T use 35mm film, 120 film, 4x5film on it.

#3. It is very BIG, will take up a lot of space to set up.

#4. It is very BIG and HEAVY, it need two persons and a pickup truck to transport it.

#5. If you don't know what is, don't own a, don't shoot with 8x10 camera... you won't need this enlarger.
