Thanks for the thought Alan. The "heat" is off, but the fires are still 
burning and could flare again. I would have loved 6 x 9 as well, but you do 
have to have a big enlarger ;-)

=================================================
I'd really want one of these, except that I can't stand the 6x7 format.
Why couldn't they have kept the 6x9 of the Bessa, etc. - the 2x3
proportion is so much more pleasing.

At least I have a Bessa II.

I hope your troubles in Oz end very soon.
