I have a Devin Tricolor 5x7 with no lens but mirrors and filters intact. I talked to someone knowledgeable on them and he said they usually have a 12in lens or larger on them. (focal length is quite large since it has to fit the mirrors) The camera bellows were extended to 15" when I got it, they can extend quite a but more im guessing 22" or so.
I plan on using it if I can get it working again, so far that means finding a lens for it.
I am looking for a 1930's era (or earlier) 12-14" lens/shutter combo, if anyone knows what search terms I should use on eBay or on here please tell me.
Lens board has 3 ~3mm screw holes and a ~79mm lens hole. I dont think I will be able to find a perfect match but can adapt it. Maybe if I was at a lens show :p
