p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Vintage Miranda 35mm Camera


I came across this ad for a Miranda 35mm Sensorex and it brought me back 30+ years. This was the camera that got me into photography when my dad gave me his Miranda when he purchased a new Olympus OM-1 and OM-10 in the late 1970's.

The ad reads as follows:

Vintage Miranda Sensorex Model G Camera in wonderful condition-Original Leather Case, Interchangable Lens along with Instruction Manual-$140.00 or best offer

I attached the photo as well and I'm posting this for those who remember these old classic 35mm cameras. If you're interested in the camera, send me a PM and I'll forward the whole ad to you so you can get a hold of the owner (who I don't know), otherwise, I'm posting this purely for the memories!

I remember people who had those back in the mid 1970's. I also remember how many had to get them fixed.

My first "real" camera was a Miranda Auto Sensorex EE (professional black finish, of course...). It was a very cool camera with lots of neat features like interchangeable prisms, but rather poorly made.

But they'd breed like rabbits if you didn't get them fixed and the shelters were already overrun.

I remember the one that I had (soligor) lense, can't recall size, I am
still using a picture I had taken with it years ago, it's a sunset reflection
on a lake, using it for a sympathy card. was going to trade up to Nikon,
store mngr. steered me to canon, haven't looked back..
