My local photo-lab/store has a large collection of stereo cameras in
a display case, and the Coronet is there.  I often walk over to the
display, wishing it was all mine, the Coronet included.  I started out in
photography as a kid with a Brownie Starmite camera, it used 127 film,
and I've got a lot of nostalgic feelings about 127 film format.  I took
some very nice slides with the Starmite camera.  The 127 slide is
considerably larger than a regular 35 mm slide, more than twice as large
as a Stereo Realist slide chip.  If the Coronet has good lenses, the
stereo images produced by the Coronet could be superior to Realist format
images, due to the much larger film chips.
 
I'm very curious if you're still shooting stereos with the Coronet.
Please tell us more.  What type of mounts and viewer do you use?  Where
or how do you get the film developed?
