    Re: Citric acid equivalent for acetic acid bath.

    Re: No dumb questions here...What have I purchased?

    My guess is it's a 4x5, based on the lens. It might just barely cover 5x7 with no movements, based on the link here: https://www.largeformatphotography.info/lenseslist.html

    Re: No dumb questions here...What have I purchased?
