Introduction to the DE VERE 504DS Digital Enlarger.

DE VERE 504DS Digital Enlarger prints B&W from digital files onto standard photographic material. The DE VERE 504DS creates a "virtual negative" of your digital files which can be projected, sized and exposed onto photographic paper and then processed in the normal way - just like a real negative!

*Convert photograph to black and white

Example of print comparison with divi vs photomechanical:

Using the digital enlarger with some class mates, i managed to enlarge a black and white image to fit an A4 sheet of photographic paper. Exposing to the paper and then placing it back into a box whilst being in a pitch black room with no lights. i then processed the image using the usual process as if the image was a negative. when enlarging the image through the enlarger, we didn't change the aperture of the machine, therefore the image that i processed appears darker than usual. 

Outcome :

We then used the large printer in the studio. Digi print. Compared the quality to the enlarger 'virtual negative' and the digital print turned out sharper, contrasts appear darker yet the overall exposure is better than the virtual negative

outcome:

Overall outcome of the digi print. better
