I have long been a fine art printer for other photographers and museums, and
printed on cold heads and condensers for many years (Leitz, Omega, Aristo
etc, five enlarger darkroom for one person), and have read every one of
Ansel Adams and Fred Pickers books and many magazine articles, and am very
No problem here either :)

Well for me, dust and scratches fall
Austin,
You assume that everyone with a Nikon scanner has depth of focus issues.
But not me nor the three others that I personally know who use them. No
depth of focus problems. I am not saying that there isn't an issue with
depth of focus, but that some units(or maybe we just have flat film)do

I have two enlargers -- diffusion and condenser -- which I use for my
B&W printing (color is being done at a lab until I can get my digital

I have a lot of respect for the knowledge of Austin and Art but I recommend
you do read the references from Brian, which support my experience.
Cold light heads have gotten a lot of hype over time because people like
Ansel Adams spoke highly of them. The Howard bond articles explains nicely

I've been working on some projects that have been less than cooperative,

Art,
I'm sorry if my reference to "someone like Art" has upset you; it was not
intended to do so - quite the opposite in fact, as it was really a
compliment to your experience and knowledge. I said it to Brian to contrast
my relative inexperience in serious photography with people like you and
