Further inventions followed: a giant enlarger (1942), a minia- ture camera (Duca, 1946/50), the first camera with automatic aperture (Automatica, 1956-63). On February 10, 1964, Julius Durst was killed in a car acci- dent, but his name lives on. Many international patents have been registered in the company's name.

Shanghai, China 1997 The pioneering role remains. We were never content with something that was just about good enough. We researched the fields of optics, light control, colorimetry and precision engineering, developed our own hardware and software, co-operated closely with outside ex- perts, placed high demands on quality and design, put our customers firmly into the fore- ground, exerted an influence on enlarging techniques worldwide. And we still do so today: ”Lambda“ is our most recent innovation, setting new standards internationally in the field of digital enlarging.

M 670 VC Constant exposure time with any contrast

The M 670 VC black-and-white enlarger meets the highest quality requirements for enlargements on variable-contrast papers, and its simple operation provides maximum scope for creativity. To set the contrast, a filter wheel moves the yellow and magenta filters into the path of the beam via two cam discs. Both filters are synchronised. Consequently, the exposure time remains constant even if the contrast is changed.

22 Filmetta The fully automatic film processor

The Filmetta processes 35 mm, roll and sheet film up to a format of 13 x 18 cm (5 x 7 in) and papers up to 18 x 24 cm (7 x 9 in). This Filmetta film processor is noted above all for its outstanding economy when it comes to water and chemistry consumption. There is not even any need to connect it up to the mains, and about four 35 mm films can be processed at the same time. Should only one 35 mm film have to be processed, a system of spacers can be placed in the developing tank to minimise chemistry consumption.

32 Rinsing Printo XL Paper processor for the professional lab

The Printo XL has been designed for RA4 and black-and- white processes, and can cope with sheet paper up to 50.8 x 80 cm (20 x 30 in). This means that it can also be used for producing posters in your own lab. The Printo XL paper processor is easy to operate and ensures consistent, reproducible results. A microprocessor con- trols all the main functions, and spiral agitators guarantee effective circulation of the solutions. The Printo XL is modular in design so that you can equip it exactly to suit your own needs. The favourably priced basic unit can later be fitted with a combined wash-and-dry module and a replenishing unit. Fully equipped, the Printo XL becomes a fully automatic dry-to-dry processing system, capable of fulfilling the highest requirements.
