Beseler Universal Anti-Newton Glass Negative Carrier
Key Features
  • For 23C Series Enlargers
This Beseler Universal Anti-Newton Negative Carrier is used for working with up to 6 x 9 medium format film stock. It is a round sandwich-style glass rotating type made for the Beseler 23C series enlargers.

Newton rings appear when two pieces of glass are sandwiched together with air trapped between them. If one glass surface is convex, this phenomenon will be more pronounced. Newton Rings will appear as a series of concentric circles. The light passing through the negative carrier experiences "obstruction" from the air inside and, consequently the rings are formed.

Well made, does what it should

This is well made, just like all the Beseler negative carriers. The anti-newton glass has performed well, no newton rings. My only minor gripe is the dimensions. I like to print full frame with a slight little bit of black framing the image--but for medium format, the printable area is exactly the width of the negative. Not a big thing, but a bit disappointing. Currently looking into a way to machine the lip that holds the glass to show a bit more of the negative. Also, it does not sandwich the negative completely flat, so there is a bit of distortion on the edges, especially for 35mm frames on the end of the negative strip.
