Subject: [Leica] OT: Any Durst specialists in the house?
From: "Dante A. Stella" <dante@umich.edu>

I am playing in the darkroom tonight and was wondering if anyone could
tell me how you open the lamp housing on a Durst 609?  There is a knob
that you can rotate and slide down.  The front plate loosens, but it
never comes off.  The front has a diagram that shows "open and close"
but with no explanation.  Ideas?  I need to fit a weaker bulb, as I am
getting 1 second exposures at f/22.

Also, for printing Leica negs, does anyone know what the deepest
recessed Durst lensboard is?  Siriotub does not get the 50mm EL close
enough...

TIA
Dante
