Today I went to J&J camera in Huntington, NY and found a Miranda Sensorex II on the shelf in good condition with its f 1.8 Auto Miranda lens. I bought it for $60. This was my first serious camera back in 1965 or 66. I was in love with it. But I lost it when I moved to Canada in 1975.
I finished off a roll of Kodacolar in two hours.
First shots in a day or two.
Nikon D3100 with Tokina 28-70mm f3.5, (I like to use a Vivitar .43x aux on the 28-70mm Tokina), Nikkor 10.5 mm fisheye, Quanteray 70-300mm f4.5, ProOptic 500 mm f6.3 mirror lens.

Very cool - it's always great to be reunited with long-lost loves.

My friend Siona hates it. She thinks I'm wasting money. I bought a 28 mm and a 135 mm miranda lens on e-bay for under $30.

I won't say your friend Siona is correct, but I think she has a great deal of sense.
