[LargeFormat] 8x10 Korona on eBay

[Karl Wolz]

I want to play around a bit more with platinum, and the 8x10 is not big
enough to give the kind of presence I want out of a platinum print.

Like Goldilocks said, "4x5 is convenient and relatively inexpensive.  11x17
creates a very nice presence in a contact print.  8x10 is just wrong."

I think I'm going to be looking at using my 4x5 and doing a lot more digital
work to get a larger neg for contact printing.
