Hello can anyone recommend a decent reliable film enlarger. Im going to be basically printing black and white(35mm). I have no knowledge for Im just starting to explore the world of film. Thanks in advance

you need three components - the enlarger, the light source and a lens. You can pick up a Beseler 23C enlarger for probably less than $60. For black and white, I strongly recommend a cold light source. These can be had for less than $90. A good 50mm enlarging lens is what you need. I would put my money here - a good Rodenstock Rodegon 50mm 2.8 lens will fill all of your needs. Most of these things can be found on Ebay.

If you look around you can pick all what you require for next to nothing now, that's the best thing about digital cameras.
I found a complete set of darkroom equipment (enlarger, lenses, plates, paper, developing tank, etc etc etc. at a flea market the other day all for 20 Euros (17 Dollars). I didn't buy it as I still have my original equipment, but its out there if you search a little.
