Somebody loaned me a DeVere enlarger for 8x10 negatives, but it does 
have holders for smaller negatives. Today I was trying to enlarge a 
4x5 negative to about 11x14, and I couldn't do it!  I couldn't figure 
out a way to get the image small enough and focussed.  The head would 
not go down past a certain point, nor would the bellows.  So it 
seemed that the smallest print I could make was 16x20.  Unfortunately 
I don't yet have an easel that size, or trays that size, although I 
am looking for some. But, is this normal?  I guess I just assumed you 
could make any size print you wanted, but maybe not.
