In a previous publication (1975) we showed that it is possible to determine the maximum diameters of galaxies on photographic plates by means of the photographic equidensity method. This method was applied especially to 235 members of the Coma cluster. On Tautenburg plates it was possible to determine for these objects equidensitometric angular diameters down to 10 arc sec.
