Cooke Speed Panchro
The original Cooke Speed Panchros were designed and built in the 1930s, but Camtec's have been rehoused and modified for compatibility with modern camera systems by Van Diemen of England. Although the comparison is not strong with modern lenses, sharpness is surprisingly good for a lens this vintage, and contrast is quite low. Direct light produces a very pleasing flare over the entire frame. These lenses are more popular now than anytime in recent years.
