Response to Info needed on Durst Enlarger

John, I've also got the Durst F60, and another use I've found for the filter drawer is to insert a pane of flashed opal diffusion glass. The Durst is a condensor enlarger, and if you decide you don't like the quick exposure times and high contrast of the condensor light, the flashed opal diffusion glass gives you a reasonable substitute for diffusion enlarging. Stephen Shuart is a good source for the glass. By the way, the filter drawer is deep enough that you can also use filters in the drawer, placed above the glass. Good luck.
