I have a 5x12 Korona that needs some restoration. I was wondering if a 5x7 was the same rail size. Does anyone have a 5x7 that could give me the measurements?

Thanks,
Paul

You might add 6 1/2 X 8 1/2 to your querry also. They've got that funny little wide lens panel, different from a normal 5X7. Makes me wonder if they borrowed the rails from full plate? I just sent my bellows off to Camera Bellows in jolly old. I'm getting excited.

My Korona 5x7 extension is 6 7/8"x 10". The rails are 6 7/8" x 14 1/4".
