The Cooke Anamorphic/i Full Frame Plus Special Flare (SF) lens series represents a pinnacle in modern large-format cinematography. Building on the acclaimed performance of the standard Anamorphic/i FF series, these lenses feature a specialized optical coating developed by Cooke. This custom coating enables cinematographers to effortlessly induce striking, stylized flares, streaks, and ghosting effects when interacting with direct light sources, while beautifully preserving the iconic, warm “Cooke Look.” Optimized for full-frame digital cinema sensors, the set delivers an authentic 1.8x anamorphic squeeze, providing the perfect balance between classic vintage anamorphic character and modern optical precision.

Key Features:

Custom Special Flare (SF) Coating: Specially engineered to produce dramatic, organic lens flares and enhanced oval bokeh when hit by direct light, giving imagery a distinct cinematic personality.
True 1.8x Anamorphic Squeeze: Delivers an optimal anamorphic format that maximizes resolution and vertical sensor coverage on full-frame cameras.
The Iconic “Cooke Look”: Retains the historic Cooke characteristic of smooth, natural skin tones, high dimensional rendering, and a gentle roll-off in sharp focus areas.
Full Frame Plus Coverage: Designed to comfortably cover large-format digital camera sensors, ensuring uniform corner-to-corner illumination and minimal distortion across all focal lengths.
Integrated /i Technology: Equipped with Cooke’s advanced metadata system, passing critical frame-by-frame lens data (focus, iris, and depth of field) directly to the camera—a vital tool for efficient post-production and visual effects workflows.
Unified Mechanics & Fast T-Stops: Feature consistent physical gear placement across the set for fast lens changes on set, matched with excellent low-light capabilities.
