I use a 25mm Voss for my Minox negs. No complaints.
I have about five rolls of Minox film (B&W) needing to
be processed and
printed...

Hi!
Just got the Durst Seipla deep dish adapter on the M601
with the
CE Rokkor-X 30mm/2.8.
Works great and will enlarge the tiny 8x11 Minox size to
8 by 11
inches on the
baseboard. That's about the 26X it's supposed to be
designed for.
Great for
small sections of 120 or 35mm too. The lens barely fits
in the
adapter but just.
