COOKE S4I SET OF 8

The Cooke S4/i prime lens series is widely considered the industry “workhorse” for high-end cinematography. Released as an evolution of the Academy Award-winning S4 series, the “i” stands for /i Technology, which enables the digital capture of lens metadata. These lenses are famed for the “Cooke Look”—a combination of sharp detail, smooth contrast, and a warm, organic feel that is particularly flattering for skin tones.

Key Features:

Aperture Range: A fast and consistent speed of T2.0 across the primary set (with the 300mm at T2.8).
Sensor Coverage: Designed specifically for Super35 format (30mm-43mm image circle depending on the lens).
i/Technology: Built-in electronics that provide real-time metadata to the camera, including focal length, focus distance, and aperture.
Cam-Type Focus: An award-winning mechanism that ensures smooth, backlash-free focus pulls with a 300° rotation.
Standardized Design: Most lenses in the set share a 110mm front diameter and unified gear positions for quick lens changes on set.
Color Matching: All lenses are precision-balanced to ensure consistent color and contrast across the entire focal range.
