Coronet 3-D
The Coronet 3-D is a simple, stereo camera in the Art Deco style that uses 127 film to create up to four stereo pairs of images per roll. Produced starting in 1953, it is one of the few stereo cameras out there that use 127 film. Whether that is a perk or a drawback we leave to you, but if you love the 127 format then this is likely a camera you want to add to your collection.
The camera employs two meniscus lenses with fixed focus, a fixed f18 aperture and a fixed 1/50 shutter speed. Each lens exposes a 5x4.3cm frame. An internal cover can be moved in front of one of the lenses if standard single frame shooting is desired in which case 8 individual frames can be exposed per roll of 127 film.
Over the Coronet 3-D's production run there were two variants made. The early version has a simple Galilean viewfinder along with a waist level finder located above and between the lenses. This version is easily recognizable by its smooth, speckled black body. The later version has a binocular style viewfinder and no waist level finder. This version also has either a smooth or ribbed Bakelite body.
