    No, the camera came lensless, unfortunately.
    I don't think I will be able to afford a Cooke knuckler in my lifetime.

    For a while I was chasing the 8X10 Portrait Studio stand and camera, darn rare

    Converting the SC11 to front tilts and swings with rear controls is fairly easy

    Some years ago a Texan stopped at my last studio, he had 3 of the 8X10 Portrait Studio stand and camera in his van/cargo trailer

    I sold him enough, he said stop

    He and his wife were ending their east coast circuit and were full up, going home to Texas

    I am sure he lurks here

    Perhaps more of a collector/restorer as he hinted at a large building/museum

    of course I lost all his data and name

    I am restoring the very rare 8x10 Studio Deardorff with rear controls for tilt and swing for front and back

    I made a bigger lens box

    For deeper lenses

    No stand so I made one

    It also has rotary back

    and NOS Slider

    Painted yesterday. Getting ready to install hardwood flooring on Friday..... Eventually, I'd like to get my front porch cleared off and install and 8x10 portrait camera, but that won't be for a year or two.
