WTB: Beseler enlarger light head

[FrankS]

I'm looking to buy an enlarger light head for my Beseler 4x5. The computreized colour head I have been using for the last few years has died. Any type will do: diffusion or condensor. Does anyone have any leads?

Any way an Omega diffusion head can be adapted to your unit? I ended up with two of them when putting together my enlarger system. If it would work I can let you have it for what I paid which is about $25.00 plus shipping.

If not then good luck and I would say look on ebay.

If this cannot fit Frank's, I would be interested. I have a Omega D5 chassis but I bought it without a head- would it fit?

I don't know for sure but I think so. Does your D5 look about the same as the D-II,D2,D3 and so on? .

I also have an incandescent housing and lamp that is surplus but it too was originally on a D-II and thus bolts in at the same points as the diffusion head.

I'll send you a PM. Wouldn't want to hijack Frank's thread 😉

But the quick answer is, yes they look similar but I do not know for certain.

I got a possible solution from Gary, who may be able to find an unused Beseler condensor head for me. (fingers crossed)

I'll hold a flashlight for you!

Thank you Poptart, but that won't be necessary. Gary (gns) has found his unused Beseler condensor head and will be shipping it to me. I am lucky/humbled/flabergasted that he is doing this solely for the price of shipping. RFF rocks, and Gary is one heckovaguy!

I saw one on the auction site yesterday. It was going cheap.

The auction is ending in ten minutes. Price is still less than $20.

Nevermind, I read the previous post.
