Saltzman Catalog
"Richard Knoppow" wrote
Bausch & Lomb also made some large aerial mapping enlargers with multiple heads. I've only seen pictures of them. I haven't even seen the pictures, just heard the rumor. Most of these mapping enlargers are very specialized and would not be of much use for pictorial photography. "Mine's bigger than yours." - Photographic Acquisitive Fetish. I think the Zeiss V was going for $1,000 on ebay - hard to beat if you have the room (and the reinforced floor (and the 440 3-phase (and the 3-ton air conditioner (exaggeration (much (not)))))) The Saltzman with the 9.5" roll film carrier and ball-head easel support was made for aerial use - a lightweight budget unit as it didn't have all the calibrations and vernier controls of a proper rectifier. -- Nicholas O.

Saltzman Catalog
"John" wrote in message m... Nicholas O. Lindan wrote: "Richard Knoppow" wrote I don't think any other heavy duty enlargers even approached the Saltzman jobs. The big Saltzmans used for aerial work look rather small and flimsy compared to other aerial 'rectifying enlargers' from Wild, Zeiss, K&E and others. Interesting. What is not in the catalog is the absolutely gigantic two-column Saltzman. That's like two of the heavy duty 8x10 models put together. Somewhere on the net there is a picture of one about to be loaded into a moving truck. It occupied the whole thing and maxed out the GVR. I think my catalogue has this machine although I remember it as having three support columns in a triangular arrangement. I rather suspect that Ceaser-Saltzman custom built a lot of stuff on special order. It would be interesting to know how many enlargers they made. Elwood shows a 10x10 model in their catalogues that was evidently meant to be an economy version of the Saltzman for aerial use. Its on a floor stand with a crank on the front for head height. I've seen several of these in the flesh. They are quite sturdy and heavy but appear a bit crude and flimsy in comparison to the Saltzman. There is an Elwood catalogue on the Camera Eccentric site at http://www.cameraeccentric.com -- --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA |

BANDWIDTH - Saltzman Catalog
"John" wrote in message m... It looks like a lot of people downloaded the Saltzman catalog. My ISP cut me off when the downloads totaled 1,000mb. They will turn it back on after July 1. I never know how much activity I get there until something like this happens. Got to find a provider that will let me run serverside scripts (fat chance, eh?) Oh, ich! I was going to download it tonight when I have access to a very high speed connection. -- --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA |
