I have been working with a Magnifax 4 for many years both with condesor head and multigrade head and never experienced the described problems. In fact in comparison with many other enlargers on the market I think it one of the best in terms of quality and especially handling. The problem sounds more related to the lens, since the condensors in a Magnifax are correctly centered and a lightfall off to only one side sounds strange. I can highly recommend switching to the very good multigrade module, which is very even in illumination.(posted 8351 days ago)
