I guess this time I really am a liar.  In my message above, I was confusing
their 35mm stereo projector with their MF mono projector.

The MF projector is cheap by our standards, but poorly made by our
standards.  It is MONO, not stereo.  It comes with a couple of carriers
and, I think, a couple of lenses.   The proof of the pudding is in the
viewing, and the one I saw was in a display case.

They also make a cheap 35mm stereo projector, 7-perf.  Same story on
quality.  It's hard to understand why anyone in North America would want a
cheap new stereo projector when we have older units that seem superior in
every way.

They do not make a stereo MF projector, that was a little brain bubble on
my part.  Sorry.

Tom
