Gundlach Korona I

Well I was the highest bidder on a certain auction site for such an animal and I am awaiting its arrival. Should I attempt to make my own plates or adapt a 4x5 or 5x7 holder to it: I think it is whole plate, but the description was poor which is why it went cheaply

Never have tried it yet myself but, this looks like a good place to start gathering information

I think maybe the person who runs this sight is a APUGer

well my Korona arrived, a delight in plished wood and brass it is 4x5 with what looks like a rapid rectilinear lens, wollensak and two film holders and one plate holder.... possibly a 5 inch lens
