The Intrepid 4 x 5 Enlarger Kit is a one-of-a-kind DIY tool that allows for enlarging and scanning film (35m, 120, and 4 x 5). While a fraction of the size of a traditional enlarger, the kit enables the user to develop prints up to 20 x 24″ in color and black and white. This on-the-go kit essentially transforms any space, no matter how small, into a darkroom.
Enlarging
- As an attachement for a 4 x 5 camera, the Intrepid Enlarger may be used with a standard large-format lens or a traditional enlarging lens mounted to the supplied m39 lens board (for lenses with 39mm thread mounts). If you shoot 4 x 5, you’ll likely be able to use a lens you already have.
LED Lights and Timer Specs
- After mounting the camera onto a copy stand or tripod, attach the light source directly to the 4 x 5 camera in the place of the ground glass (it accepts any 4 x 5 camera with a Graflok back).
- Perfectly calibrated for printing and fully controlled by a timer, the LED lights include built-in CMY color controls and contrast filters, so you don’t have to acquire them. Additionally, it includes a built-in safelight for printing.
- The new-generation timer includes additional manual settings for adjusting contrast, focus, output light strength, color balance, and saving time settings.
- Another feature of the timer panel allows the user to dismount the light source and utilize it as a backlight for digitizing film with a DSLR camera or smartphone.
Scanning Mode
- This mode utilizes the light source as a backlight for digitizing your negatives using a DSLR or smartphone. It’s calibrated perfectly to create a neutral image and has the option to manually program and save color balance settings for different film stocks.
