The "<g>" at the end is supposed to stand for "grin". I guess that's
not as universal as :-). Anyway, I was joking. Even if I could get the
lens mounted, my ceiling wouldn't be high enough. To top it all off, I
no longer have my B22. It fell victim to a moving accident. <sniff,
sniff>
To make things worse, I don't even have a wet darkroom at the moment.
<sob, sob> But I have hopes for the future, and enlargers are cheap
enough now so replacement should be relatively painless.

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.

How hard would it be to modify that for my Omega B22? <g>
