Beseler 23CIII-XL Photographic Black
& White Condenser Enlarger
With well
over half a
million
Beseler
23C's having
been
purchased
since it was
first
introduced
in 1955, the
American
made 23C is
unquestionably
the world's
favorite
medium
format
enlarger.
Many have
been in near
continuous
use by
schools,
government
agencies and
businesses,
and
countless
others have
been handed
down from
father to
son, to
granddaughter,
like the
well-loved
family
possession
that it has
become.
· Very few
products
have proven
to be as
reliable as
has the
venerable
Beseler 23C.
It has
become an
indispensable
tool to
those who
enjoy the
creative
aspects of
photography;
those in
pursuit of
the pleasure
and the
satisfaction
of knowing
that they
truly
"created"
the final
image and
who want to
be in
complete
control of
every aspect
of the
process.
· The high
performance
Condenser
Lightsource
utilizes
Beseler's
patented
"Cone-of
Light"
variable
condenser
system to
adjust the
position of
the
over-sized
5½" optical
glass
condensers
to maximize
the
illumination
for every
format 35mm
through
6x9cm,
yielding
exceptionally
short
exposure
times, a
cooler film
stage and
less
negative
buckling
than with
conventional
condenser
heads.
· The
23Clll-XL
features
interchangeable
lightsources.
The
Condenser
lamphouse
supplied
with this
model is
interchangeable
with the
Dichro
Colorhead
(8132-02)
and with the
Variable
Contrast
Lightsource
(8134-02)
· The
extraordinarily
rigid,
extra-long
twin-girder
construction
of the
23Clll-XL
helps to
reduce
transient
vibrations,
which can
detract from
image
sharpness.
The lens
stage can be
tilted to
create
special
effects or
for
distortion
correction
and the
projection
assembly can
be tilted up
to 90°. To
assure
optimum
performance,
skilled
technicians
at the
factory
carefully
align every
23C, using
the most
up-to-date
laser
technology.
If it can be
done with an
enlarger,
the 23C can
probably do
it with
ease. |
