I assume this means it would work with the V35 enlarger. People may say that there equipment is expensive but compared to what? I know of no other company that offers some of the equipment they do. It is all well made, practical, functional and guaranteed for life. My own darkroom is almost all Zone VI equipment - 5x7 enlarger, 4x5 VC cold light head, compensating enlarger timer and 2 compensating developer timer. I also have a Zone VI 4x5 field view camera that has traveled everywhere with me and has functioned without fail. I wouldn't trade for any other equipment. Ian Stanley Kathmandu, Nepal
