Will one of these cover 6X9 negatives? If not, what do I need? Thanks.

Yes it will just fine.I have one, it is an excellent lens. It covers my 6x10 Brooks veriwide so coverage to spare for 6x9.

I bought one of these, and it seems to work fine. After all, it's a Nikon.

But, I wish that I had purchased a 100mm Componon-S instead. (This will also cover 6x9.) The elements of these lenses can be removed and placed into a Copal 0 shutter. (It's either a Copal 0 or a Copal 00, I can't remember which.) This way, the lens could double for both an enlarger and a macro lens. I've used my Componon-S 150mm lens in this way, and it works great.
