The Miranda Fv is a manual focus 35mm SLR from Miranda released in 1966.
It has an focal-plane shutter with speeds from 1s to 1/1000 with B. It features an removable metering system using a CdS cell. The meter has a range of 2 to 18 EV at (ASA 100), settable to film speeds from 6 to 3200 ASA. The meter is powered by a 625 mercury battery. The finders are interchangeable using either a prism, waist level finder, with 5x or 15x critical focusers. The film transport uses a film advance lever and a rewind crank.
A similar FvT model was also available that offered a TTL type metering finder.
