Vintage 1980's Omega Super Chromega C-700 Dichroic Lamphouse Enlarger & Omega Concept Six B-600O "VERY RARE ITEM NOT MANY LEFT OUT THERE THAT ARE COMPLETE LIKE THIS ONE" This item will look used but was tested and still works but all kodak materials that are included more than likely are no good and have expired a long time ago. Great Collectable Item. Mega Super Chromega C-700 Dichroic Lamphouse and omega concept six enlarger print machine B-600. Both units come with paperback book instructions. Both omega machines are high quality products back in there time and the innovation design makes them a break threw in dark room engineering. All accessories are included to make a complete printing machine / This is a collectible item. Print machines were tested and still work but there is no guarantee the kodak paper is still good because of age. Material: Metal Plastic and Paper Size of Platform/Base: 20" L x 14 1/2" W x 4" H Size of Metal Beam" 32' Tall HISTORY: The C-700 enlarger represents the later generation of the model that started as the B600. While the B600 accommodated a maximum negative size of 2�"x2�", the C700 accepts negatives up to 2�"x2�". Negative carriers and accessories are much the same as for the B600. The B600 and Chromega B600 enlargers were used as the basis for a series of specialty enlargers called Concept Six. Instead of the usual baseboards, these enlargers had a special "structural foam molded" base incorporating a borderless 11"x14" easel and either a paper safe or exposure meter/timer combination. The Concept Six enlargers overlapped the B600 and C700 enlargers, so were sold with both types of lamphouses. Used Advice: Since the Concept Six enlargers have so many chassis parts in common with the C700, the enlargers themselves can still be fully refurbished without problem. However, the timer/exposure meters are not likely to be worth servicing as the probes and many other parts are no longer available. The colorhead that was initially offered with the C-700 was called the Super Chromega C-700 Dichroic Lamphouse, but with the introduction of the C760 enlarger in 1981, the same colorhead, with minor changes, was renamed the Super Chromega C760 Dichroic Lamphouse and the catalogue number changed. The two units are functionally identical. It was during this period that the Omega company benefited from a major boom in interest in photography. The 35mm SLR, with built-in metering systems simplified the process of achieving quality photographs and widened the appeal of photography as a hobby. Later on the introduction of colorhead enlargers and color processing drums enabled anyone to conveniently process their own color enlargements in home darkrooms. As a result, the sales of darkroom equipment skyrocketed as well. This enabled Omega to introduce a number of new models during the 1970's and early 80's, including the D5, C67, B66, B600, C760 and D5500.
