Omega A3
35mm Enlarger

Circa: 1967-1970

Omega A-3 Condenser Enlarger

Intended as a basic entry-level 35mm enlarger, the A3 was very unique design nonetheless. Its reflex type condenser lamphouse bore more resemblance to a Durst enlarger than other Omega designs. 

It was limited to just two formats - 35mm and 126, and most accessories were unique to the A3. It was sold with only the short column and no colourhead was ever available. 

Used Advice: Because the components of the A-3 were unique to this model, it should be closely examined to ensure that all parts are present as it  may be extremely difficult to obtain replacements.
