Beginners darkroom setup

Gear/Equipment/Film

Hi I want to start darkroom printing and I have a couple of questions that I would love to hear your opinions on.

  1. What is a good enlarged on the lower end of the

budget. I am looking for an enlarger that can do both color and B&W. I have been looking at the Intrepid Compact Enlarger and it seems to have everything that I’m looking for but it doesn’t come with any lenses or stand. What would you recommend, I’m also open to vintage suggestions.

  1. What is the best way to make a room without widows like a bathroom into a non permanent darkroom.
