How about for making very small photos from 35mm or 6x6 negs?
(Actually, if I'm making wallet size photos, I find it easier to go to the next
longer lens. The enlarger head is farther from the easel so I'm not banging my
head on it, and the light fall-off makes the exposures more manageable.)
For any who might not be aware, the Omega enlargers use a "code" for the model
number. An "A" series is for 35mm, the "B" series is for 6x6cm, the "D" series
is for 4x5. Then there is a number that I don't know what it stands for. And
following are any features. I have a D2V, which is 4x5 with a moveable
condenser lens, the "V". If it had a long coluum, it would be a D2V-XL.

Bill,
You're not going to modify that lens. You might have to modify a lensboard to
fit it. The question is whether you're enlarging 8x10 negatives. This is a very
'long' lens. Even on my 8x10 enlarger I only use a 240mm for 8x10 negs. I'm not
sure why you would want this for a B22.
