Exa with ISCO Isconar 2.8/50 lens. The same lens as the earlier Westar, just with a slightly different barrel.
I just got this camera last week and ran a roll of black and white film through it this past Friday. It takes the Minolta MD mount lenses, and you can see I've got one on in the picture. The reason it takes the Minolta mount lenses is because it is an officially licensed camera by Minolta, made in the Chinese Seagull factory and is actually a rebadged Minolta X-300. When Minolta moved their production to China in 1990, they had the Seagull factory take over building their manual-focus cameras. This was one such camera and Seagull used many different names for this camera. I have found at least 13 different names their Minolta X-300 copy went under.
Unwanted (or unloved) Good Gear (UGG) camera. These are cameras that are found in ample amounts in thrift stores. Most go for a fraction of their original cost. These are not really "junk" units; UGGs were fine snapshooters and sometimes offered unique or exceptional technology at a real value. For various reasons, they have fallen from favor from vintage collector's interests, including mine. UGGs won't go on my shelves but will be handled, examined, noted, and then released back into the wild to find a temporary home with another vintage photo collector with a low threshold of appreciation.

Uncommon brand to find in my part of the world. Very surprised to see it in a local Antique store.
The design to me is a mash-up between an Argoflex and a Ricohflex. 80mm f/3.5 viewing and focus lenses are coupled by ring gear teeth (not so pleasant to touch). F-stop lever is underneath the taking lens. Limited shutter speeds and a very dark viewfinder. The leather on this example is separating quite a bit, I'll have to mend it soon with some adhesive. With its, well . . . poor build quality, I can see why this camera never became popular.
There were apparently three Bioflex camera models made; all in different countries from different companies. This one is from a Japanese maker, there is a French-made brand, and lastly a plastic camera with the same name originated from Hong Kong.
A 35mm viewfinder camera made by Minolta under contract for GAF/Ansco. Note the "Rokkor" lens name remains - a dead giveaway. Minolta did not sell a version of this camera in their own product line. That probably cost Ansco extra for the exclusivity.
The CdS photocell is to the right of the viewfinder in the photo. The top window is the cell itself while the bottom window indicates ASA/DIN film speed. The 45mm f/2.8 lens was still considered moderately fast back in those days. No manual settings for shutter outside of "bulb" and the flash setting are available; a "set it and forget it" automatic shooting camera.
The viewfinder is clear and bright. The CdS cell's meter readout needle is visible in a bar across the top of the viewfinder window It sweeps left and right in a broad arc. Power for the meter and shutter comes from a single once-common EPX625-type battery. Also in the viewfinder are the main stops for zone focusing. They're the typical symbols; mountain for infinity, group of folks for mid-distance and a rather strangely done icon of a single person for close-up shooting. A small pointer moves between the symbols as you focus.
The Autoset portion of the name was due to how you simply set the camera for the Guide Number of the flash first (and hey, everybody knows that number, right?) and the lens opening is automatically configured as you focus the lens. Neat.
Old camera - This is an Old camera that I used.

Love my Rolleiflex for introducing me to medium format(sorry Holga!). It's compact and light(compared to a Hasselblad), and able to shoot at slow speeds. But time to let it go as I prefer the Hasselblad for shooting, and can't give the Rolleiflex enough love it deserves. :'(
Finally managed to get my hands on the new Nikon D800. With its 36.3 megapixel sensor- finally a camera to do justice to this amazing piece of classic Nikon glass the Noct-Nikkor 58mm f1.2.
WEEK 29 – Carrollton, GA, Target (II)
Panning to the left, we get a view of the sleek new electronics desk: a far cry not only from the bulky “boats” of old, but also even the more modern “Target Electronics” desks! I guess a bunch of hard edges, reflective white material, and a backlit front shelving space will do that for you… speaking of which, I actually think it’s quite clever how that space has been utilized for an all-in-one battery station, even if it does sacrifice having any true branding to help identify the desk’s purpose.
That arrowed remodel sign informs us that we will encounter the entertainment, sporting goods, toys and games, and auto and home improvement departments as we press forward toward the store’s left-side wall, and indeed we shall, as our stour continues two weeks from now. Stay tuned!
NEXT WEEK – more from the Oakland Kroger post-remodel…

Miranda Sesorex is a system SLR camera with a wide interchangeability of both viewfinders and lenses. It is TTL progression from the Automex models in 1967.
There are seven almost-the-same but distinct versions of Sensorex.
There are two very peculiar features in Miranda: the interchangeable prism (the Nikon F was the only other camera at the time with this feature), and the front-mounted shutter release.
Low noise shutter and vibration-free mirror mechanism.
After removing the pentaprism, the camera is fully functional, can still meter and focus, especially handy for close-up work.
Sensorex was the flagship model at that time. Miranda was apparently the first Japanese SLR manufacturer, and for a time, Miranda used to compete with Nikon and Topcon for build quality and optics.
The Miranda was also sold as Soligor in Europe.
The Miranda Camera Company, originally named the Orion Camera Company, manufactured cameras in Japan between 1955 and 1978. Their first camera was the Miranda T. Unlike many Japanese made cameras, Miranda did not make their own lenses and had to rely on other manufacturers to supply them.
Many Miranda SLRs had advanced or sophisticated features for their day. Almost all Miranda SLR's shared the same basic lens mount, but the mount complexity increased over the years to accommodate more aperture and metering controls.
Unable to keep up with the increasing manufacturing automation of the larger manufacturers, and the increasingly sophisticated electronics of competing cameras, Miranda ceased producing cameras.

Galt seinerzeit als das beste Objektiv mit der Normalbrennweite 50 mm für DDR-Spiegelreflexkameras mit M42. Dazu kommt noch die bemerkenswerte Nahgrenze von 33 cm.
Nachtrag: Ich habe den Linsenschnitt dieses Objektives im April 2019 durch den korrekten ersetzt. Es hat sich durch das Studium neuerer Quellen* herausgestellt, dass ich ursprünglich den Linsenschnitt einer älteren Pancolar-Version (1964) verwendet habe, die aber wegen des Thoriumgehaltes (radioaktiv) 1967 durch eine thoriumfreie Version ersetzt wurde. Auch wurde die optische Konstruktion geändert: eine der inneren Linsengruppen wurde getrennt.

Inzwischen besitze ich auch eine neuere Ausführung mit schwarzer Fassung.
