Miranda EE


Miranda EE RIC cira 1971-77



Quick overview:
Miranda's last major design in all-mechanical cameras was indeed a tour de force. Introduced in 1971, this shutter-preferred automatic was a logical if complex solution to growing demand for additional sophistication in top amateur SLRs.

I picked up this little number for $50 the other day. It's not a bad buy, it came with a very nice camera bag, two flashes, and two additional lens other than main kit lens.

It was a bit random, I usually don't buy cameras at that price. But after taking a look at it I've found that this camera is a very well made camera. I found that all the lens where clean and the camera it's self was solid like a shit brick house. There are only two defects with the camera so far, I seemed that the camera was dropped and caused both problems. The view finders prism has a small spider crack in it ( but the prisms are removable) and the film door is broken, it will shut but if you hit or put and pressure on the hinge side of the camera the door opens. Good thing it came with a leather holder/case.

Here are some examples from the first roll I took. I used FujiFilm 400.

I picked this nice fully manual Camera from a guy, for $30. Had to replace the one battery for the light meter. The actual camera is much cleaner than this picture. Here are some test shoots from my first roll of film. 400 speed Kodak.

Zenza Bronica EC

I picked up this Beautiful camera for $30.00 us that's right a Medium Format Camera for $30.00. You can't even get a great old 35mm camera for that price. And from what I hear this camera is as good as a Hassy. The lens has some fungus, but it shouldn't effect the test roll.
