| View Full Version : Honeywell Nikor System Enlarger alienlie 08-19-2008, 10:19 AM Hi, i'm still looking to buy an enlarger and i'm looking for a Durst but in my searches i've found an Honeywell Nikor System 6 X 7 Photo Enlarger w/ Color head but i don't know this brand. Does anyone know anything about this enlarger? Thanks outwest 08-19-2008, 10:39 AM You'll also find them with several other names on them. They are a nice compact enlarger and the heads are great for easily converting 4x5 and 5x7 condenser enlargers to color. I've seen them go for anywhere between $75 and $225 in the past, probably less now. mgb74 08-19-2008, 10:40 AM As I remember, it was a reasonably good enlarger, but never achieved much popularity. If it's cheap and has all the accessories (i.e. lensboards, negative carriers) you need it might be fine. But I would not expect to easily find parts or accessories if/when you need them. John Koehrer 08-19-2008, 10:41 AM I don't know who actually made the enlarger but the same machine was available as the Nikor and Rollei brand names. Identical except for the logo. I'd stick to the more commonly available name brands just because accessories will be much easier to find. Nicholas Lindan 08-20-2008, 09:26 AM Honeywell ... Nikor ... anyone know anything about this enlarger? It was made my LPL, Japanese, 70's/80's. Similar to the Omega / LPL C76 enlarger. Negative carriers interchange (?). |
