However, not only the lens and neg carrier, but also the condenser (or light box in a colour head), must be the correct size for the negative used. If the enlarger comes with only a 35 mm condenser, it won´t work with a 6x6 cm neg, no matter what lens you use. So if I were you, I´d check this out before spending money on the lens.

Hey gang. My employer recently purchased a Kaiser enlarger with an adjustable neg carrier (whoopee! I can finally do my own BW MF!...sort of). However, the enlarger only can with a 50mm lens. I have a friend from the UK coming to Cairo for a visit and was wondering if I can find a 75 or 80mm lens to accomodate 120 film for around 60-70 pounds. She'd bring it over no problem, my job is to locate such an item. I found a Schneider lens in Jessop's Internet catalog, but am unfamiliar with the brand and quality...if it's complete rubbish, I'll ignore it. Any suggestions?
