I have a IIA.  They are nice however the lenses are not standard and are
impossible to find.  They are not interchangeable with the other Focomat
lenses.  The IIC lenses may work with  a 7mm or so adapter.  I found the
lenses to be adequate with the 90 being quite excellent. The 35mm mask and
filter tray are necessary for this enlarger I wouldn't purchase one unless
those were included.  $500 isn't bad with clean lenses, filter tray, and
three masks...very bad without.
