Length of Enlarger Standard or Up Stand
Another
extremely useful feature for an enlarger is an extra long standard
for big enlargements. The higher the head of the enlarger can
be raised, the larger the image is projected. A longer up stand
can also be useful when using longer focal length lenses with
smaller format negatives, i.e.. 150mm lens with 35mm negatives. |

| Be
careful to check that the height of the enlarger allows you to
fit it into your work space as there have been cases of enthusiastic
photographers finding that the standard is too tall for the space
they intend to place the equipment once they have it home. |
