1960 Canon P Rangefinder
My current Darkroom.
Very fortunate to have a second bathroom converted to a darkroom. Obviously quite limited space, especially the wet/print processing area. I can comfortably print up to 16"x 12" which I good enough for me. I load film here also (I can achieve total darkness) but then process in the kitchen – works well.
Durst 805 Condenser enlarger gives me 35mm, 6 x 4.5, 6 x 6, & 6 x 9mm negative facility.





Fuji 6x9 SW - 1988
Fuji 6x9 SW aka the "TEXAS LEICA"
Last year I had the opportunity to acquire a pristine Durst M805 condenser enlarger. I sold my M605 and now had the facility to use negatives from 35mm - 6x9.
I love using rangefinder cameras without the slap of an SLR mirror and although not exactly inconspicuous, it still has a lovely slick leaf shutter sound.
I bought this beast from Ebay Japan and was not disappointed in the great condition.
I chose the SW with the 65mm lens (approx. 28mm on a 35mm camera) and it does not disappoint in terms of quality and sharpness.
