I got the Kiev with a box full of other junk too. An interesting camera for the collector I guess, but has the usual Ukranian quality control issues. lots more plasticky than it actually looks.
Miranda had a great name in photography. I remember some older kit in one of the labs when I worked for 3M. Miranda (and Cosina for that matter) pretty much sold their name to anything in more recent times.
RE the F301. I'm off to Holland this weekend to a camera fair, but the journey will be a good excuse to stick a 28mm lens on it and put a few rolls of Delta400 through it. small lightweight and inexpensive if it gets some sea salt spray on the ferry! lol
