They didn't function when they were current. I doubt if they have gotten better with age.
Aaargh! Someone's flaming my beloved Mirandas! :^)
Actually I have to agree at least partially. The dx-3 - the last Miranda - was apparently prone to problems, especially the early models. I have developed a very close relationship with the repair guy at Classic Camera in Biddeford, Maine as a result of my thing for Mirandas. He tells me that there is actually a pulley inside the dx-3! The reason I like that model is because it is a perfect size for me, with well placed controls. It handles beautifully.
OTOH, the Auto Sensorex EE is built like a tank, simple, solid, and easy to fix when it does go wrong.
Miranda lenses, BTW, are superb. -- Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED] •
