Hi,

     I made some 16x20 b&w prints with a 4x5 Beseler/cold light enlarger
from 35 negs with the Leitz V-Elmar 100mm lens.  The baseboard was removed
and the projected image on the floor.  It was easier to use the motor up/down
to focus while scoping the grain magnifier than the focus wheel because
of the reach!  But the longer focal length makes a big difference in an
even illumination.  It also means the lens is only being utilized in the
center, so corner lens corrections are not an issue.

                                                               Best, Rich
