September, 1934 T h INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPH KK Thirty-one THE KODAK MINIATURE ENLARCER A paper-cabinet ha^e, sold separately, is another important accessor). This compact cabinet affords a portable but firm base to which to clamp the enlarger standard, allowing the user to put the enlarger in any convenient working position. For the benefit of owners of Kodak Auto-Focus Enlarges, Model B, or the earlier models adapted for the use of a Photoflood Lamp, the enlarging assembly of the Kodak Miniature Enlarger is available alone to convert the previous equipment into a miniature-type enlarger. This includes the lens and mount, the negative carrier, and the reflector. This converter, enlarging to 8 diameters, slides on the face plate in place of the regular enlarging unit. Prices Kodak Miniature Enlarger, including the masking paper holder but not the paper-cabinet base ------------ $67.50 Kodak Miniature Enlarger, complete except for the paper holder or the paper-cabinet base $52.50 Paper-cabinet base -------- $10.00 Assembly to equip Kodak Auto-Focus Enlarger to take miniature negatives ------ $35.00 Masking paper holder alone ----- $17.50 The Kodak Miniature Enlarger, designed for the purpose its name indicates, is currently announced by the Eastman Kodak Company. The new enlarger permits full advantage to be taken of the fine-grain characteristics of Panatomic Film. It gives enlargements up to 11 by 14 inches from the negatives of the half Vest Pocket size (1 3/16 by 1 9/16 inches). It enlarges from 2^ to 10 diameters, and takes negative areas up to 2*4 by 2^2 inches. The Kodak Miniature Enlarger is one of few enlargers that permit a wide range of small-sized negatives to be used, even including the popular snapshot size of 2^4 by 3^4) provided the length is masked down to 2}/2 inches. The operation of the Kodak Miniature Enlarger is simplicity itself. Sliding the enlarger head up or down adjusts for picture size. Critical focus is obtained by turning the lens mount in which a brilliant Kodak Anastigmat f :4.5 lens, especially designed for enlarging, is set. The lens is permanently installed, obviating any need for the user to put his camera out of commission by removing its lens for use in the enlarger, with possible damage to the lens an additional disadvantage. Rheostat control gives two degrees of illumination from an inexpensive Mazda Photoflood Lamp. Dimmed, the light is about one-fifth the full power. This twodegree illumination provides a sufficient variation in light strength, making a lens diaphragm unnecessary and thus simplifying correct timing of exposures. The lamp house is amply ventilated, and a special heat-absorbent glass disc affords further protection to the negative. A detachable safelight disc permits inserting and adjusting bromide paper while the printing light is on. The safelight disc is also useful in doing such combination work as printing in skies. A new type of masking paper holder is an essential part of the outfit. The masking arms are attached to a metal frame, which by means of an ingenious catch is held up out of the way while both hands are adjusting the paper.
