Interesting illustrated article about lensmaking. Cooke makes high-end cine lenses for the movie industry. A few years ago they also went back to their roots and made a small run of large format lenses. I have a Cooke XVa Triple Convertible that I use on 8x10, it was produced in two production runs of 60 lenses each during 2004 and 2005.
