From memory, Miranda was originaly a manufacturer of cameras and lenses.
In more recent times Dixons had the Brand Name and sold budget cameras, lenses, flashguns and tripods bearing the Miranda badge.
So I would think that a K mount Miranda Lens would be from the Dixons era and would be a budget model. That said, it may perform quite reasonably.
