I have taken the bellows out of a 5x7 Korona View Camera to order a replacement and it appears to be very strangely constructed.
The (what I believe is a ) 1909 model camera has these strange "divots" cut into the sides of the bellows frame. Look on the left and right of the frame to see the half-moon shaped cut-outs.
Anyone know why these were cut? Was this camera possibly a "stereo capable" camera with the proper accessories?
That's a weird aspect ratio for a lens board, although the 1909 Gunlach/Korona catalog lists just such a beast BUT doesn't mention stereo accessories specifically for this model.
Ideas? Observations?
