Miranda DR
The Miranda DR is a 35mm film SLR from the Japanese maker Miranda Camera Company, sold in the early 1960s as part of the brand's interchangeable-lens system aimed at enthusiast photographers.
Evidence on what a Miranda DR is worth today is thin: a single UK auction hammer result from July 2024 sold for £112, which sits at saleroom level and excludes buyer's and seller's commission. With only one data point, that figure should be treated as indicative rather than a reliable market price, and condition, working shutter, and presence of a matching lens will swing the value materially.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
