The B22 is a nice little condensor enlarger. What would you like to know about it?

If you're thinking of buying one, I don't think you can get new parts for it anymore, buy there are lots of used ones, so accessory items shouldn't be hard to come by.

I would recommend adding a top wall brace, especially if this is the XL (extended length) version.

The omega B-22 is a condenser enlarger that will accomodate all film sizes up to and including 6x6 (with the appropriate lens, supplementary condenser and negative carrier). Parts advice and information is available at www.clasic-enlargers.com
