    Overview

    The Miranda 28-70mm f/3.8-4.8 MC Macro is a budget zoom lens made by Cosina in the late 80s/early 90s. It offers a useful focal range and macro capability, but optical performance is limited by its cheap construction. Build quality is plasticky, and handling is basic. The lens suits enthusiasts seeking an inexpensive vintage zoom for casual use, especially on APS-C cameras, but it won't satisfy those demanding sharpness or durability.
