- Description
- Metal Kodak Precision Enlarger mounted on a wooden board with power outlets and power switch mounted beside the base of the enlarger. The support arm mostly consists of a silver metal pole onto which the dull grey metal enlarger support is mounted - a plastic knob on one side allows the enlarger support to move up and down the support arm. The enlarger itself consists of a shiny metal dome with a fabric-wrapped power cord coming out the top [most likely the house for the light source] mounted on top of the grey metal frame [to which the enlarger support is attached] and into which several different negative trays can be fit, below the frame are dark grey fabric bellows that can be adjusted along a set of metal poles, the bottom of the bellows are attached to a smaller grey metal frame that also houses the focussing lens and a coloured filter that can be rotated in and out of frame.
