I bought this enlarger from ebay. I just suspect that something maybe missing. How many conderser lenses there must be inside the chamber? My father is and old photographer and he told me there must be two lenses looking to each other inside the chamber.
Thanks

It should have two condenser lenses with the convex sides pointing at each other.

hahaha would you sell your only lens to me? 
How much can it affect the result? Did you try without?

Mine is lower one too. I tried to change it to an upper tray and it fits...If you think you are not going to use I may want to buy from you Do you have a negative carrier? I am missing negative carrier too...
Pickett, could you tell us where the upper lens fits?

Sorry, can't give you specifics. I just know what was in the condenser head of a couple of other of the same brand that I've had.
You know, it might be that for 35mm coverage you only need the one condenser...maybe a second for 2 1/4. I've always owned larger format enlargers. Seems strange you are both missing one.

qu'est-ce que c'est?
Me too. I only have a single lens in the condenser section of my Beseler Printmaker 35 enlarger. And I got mine new from Beseler. I've never had a problem with the results.
