My loss, your gain! The old Ford bug bit me this morning, and I have to raise some capitol!


What I'm offering is my 8X20 Korona complete with 4 film holders! 2 originals, 2 late manufactured, by I'm not sure who. All are very usable and in great condition. For the fussy, I'll note that one of the originals has an inch or 2 of the light trap ridge missing, and another has a home made "grab" on the dark slide. When I used them, they were light tight.


The camera is in beautiful shape for it's age. It's all original.


The all important bellows is original, and if I told you it was "supple", I'd be lying. It's rather old and stiff, but I've used it without incident. I'm a careful worker and always use my dark cloth for extra safety draped over the camera, Morley Baer wrap style. I got good images with this camera.


More pictures in the next post. It comes with the hard case, and it also has some original Korona Rails for extra frame support. The screws in the rails don't match the sockets in this camera. I don't remember where the rails came from. Maybe a 12X20. Easy fix. You move 2 of the 4 screws to match the camera sockets.

I'll want $2444 for this. Includes shipping in USA!!

Somewhere I've got an ultra sharp 310mm Graphic Konica f9 lens I think on a board for this camera. I'll go look for it. Have to offer it seperate though. Also have 8X20 film up in the fridge. The Tripod is NOT included, but can be had. It's a giant Gitzo.
