Arrived today a Miranda GT serial 869266 with a Miranda 50mm f1.9 lens. This is a 'G' model with the cds meter built in to the finder. Very clean but the meter does not work. Two small chips in the pentaprism so somebody may have tried to dismantle it. The battery compartment on the Miranda models that have meters has a very fine gauge thread and is likely to seize, a good reason to check on any such camera and remove the battery if not in use, do not over tighten the cap.
Somebody had put the lens on incorrectly. I am investigating if any damage resulted.
