Two notes:  

First, I did buy the V35 Leitz enlarger and will be using it this weekend.  

Second, the first of my Jazz Shoots went well -- I ended up using XP2 with
an M3, with 1.4/35, 1.4/50, 2/90, and 2.8/135 Leica lenses, and a roll of
TMY with a Rollei 2.8GX.  Exposures were shot at 30/800 ISO.

The results were fine, though over-exposed by a stop (thanks to four light
meters!).  I'll be doing the second on Saturday, with the same films,
though I suspect I'll use the 2.8F due to its older 'dim screen' -- I have
great difficulty focusing with the 'bright screen' on the 2.8GX in anything
other than desert-sun conditions.  Maybe I'll use a 220 roll of 400 Delta.

The club I shoot at on Tuesdays is relatively well lit;  that on Saturdays
is much dimmer.
