The Omni-Con was designed to fit D and E series condenser enlargers by simply replacing
the light cap on the condenser lamphouse. Its outward appearance was
rather unusual, but inside it somewhat resembled the Chromega lamphouse with
the 200W lamp mounted horizontally, an integrating sphere, and internal blower. Filters were
included for both Kodak Polycontrast and Dupont Varigam papers.
Because it fit on top of the condenser lamphouse, it required significant additional ceiling clearance. And since the filter adjustment would be out of the reach of the operator when the enlarger head was towards the top of the column, a pull chain was employed to move the adjustment lever. Used Advice: Used units should be checked that they are complete since replacement parts are rare. Filters were user installed, so should not be a problem as long as the filter frame is still there. However, the original spotlight lamp is difficult to find and is relatively expensive. |
