Dear All,

Thought you may be interested in reading a new article on the f32.net 
web site describing the presentation of the prototype Cooke PS945 
Soft Focus Portrait lens to Paul Wilson, the great grandson of the 
Pinkham & Smith Company Founder.

Pinkham & Smith made some of the most prestigious large format soft 
focus lenses that are still today highly prized optics - both by 
collectors and users.

Paul gave valuable assistance to Cooke Optics during the development 
process of their new lens.

Barbara Lowry from Cooke Optics is the author and contributor - thanks Barbara!
