Miranda's fast telephoto — the 135mm f/2.8 Auto ED for Miranda SLR cameras.

The Miranda 135mm f/2.8 Auto ED DX SLR Coupled is a fast telephoto prime for Miranda SLR cameras. Miranda was a Japanese camera manufacturer. The ED designation indicates extra-low dispersion glass — unusual at budget level. At f/2.8, it provides useful speed for portraits. The Miranda mount is proprietary and very limited.

The ED element is a genuine quality indicator — providing better chromatic correction than non-ED alternatives. Sharpness is likely decent. The f/2.8 at 135mm provides useful DOF control for portraits. Miranda lenses are generally well-made. The DX SLR coupling ensures proper auto-aperture operation on Miranda bodies.

Miranda mount — proprietary and very limited. Filter thread varies. Weight varies. Build quality is good Miranda. Manual focus with auto aperture coupling. The Miranda mount severely limits compatibility. Adapters to other systems exist but are uncommon. The ED element quality is wasted on the limited mount.

Very cheap due to the limited mount. Check ED element quality and focus. The ED element is a genuine quality feature. The Miranda mount severely limits practical use. Only for Miranda camera owners. The ED quality deserves a more widely compatible mount. Adapters to mirrorless may exist but are rare.
