The Korona Series VII camera was manufactured by the Gundlach Optical Company in circa 1900. Designed as a hand camera in which a large number of adjustments are not necessary. The reversible back and swing are omitted from this camera to combine compactness and utility and the rack and pinion feature is optional to order. Constructed of wood with a seal grain cover, a rising and falling wood front, spring actuated ground glass focusing screen, a brilliant finder, and highly polished nickel plated hardware. Fitted with an instantaneous symmetrical lens or a Series IV-s Turner-Reich lens housed in a model F automatic shutter. The camera was available in two sizes to take either 4 x 5 or 5 x 7 images. Price in 1902 was $18 and $23 respectively.
