Miranda Laborec III

The Miranda Laborec III is a 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) camera introduced by the Japanese company Miranda in 1975. As part of Miranda's Laborec series, it was positioned as an entry-level to mid-range SLR, aimed at amateur photographers seeking a functional and affordable camera body during a period dominated by more established brands like Canon and Nikon. The Laborec III typically featured a fixed pentaprism viewfinder, a cloth focal-plane shutter with speeds ranging from 1 second to 1/1000th plus B, and a basic exposure meter, making it a straightforward tool for learning photography without advanced features like TTL metering or automatic aperture coupling.
