The Cooke Anamorphic/i Special Flare (SF) 2x series is a premium, specialized adaptation of Cooke’s renowned anamorphic S35 line. This 5-lens set—comprising 25mm, 32mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 100mm focal lengths—is engineered for Super 35 formats. While keeping the classic sharpness, warm skin tones, and organic dimensionality of “The Cooke Look™” intact, these lenses utilize custom-tailored internal coatings. These coatings encourage light sources to produce beautiful, exaggerated blue horizontal streaks, flare characteristics, and expressive aberrations that are highly sought after by modern cinematographers.
Key Features:
Stylized Special Flare (SF) Coatings: Tailored optical coatings produce enhanced, organic horizontal blue flares, elliptical highlights, and striking aberrations while maintaining excellent contrast and sharpness in the center.
True 2X Anamorphic Squeeze: Delivers a classic cinematic widescreen look with distinct oval bokeh (2:1 ratio) and an immersive sense of depth.
Exceptional Optical Performance: Specifically designed to control lateral/longitudinal color and astigmatism, providing incredible rendering for both digital cinema and film capture.
Cooke /i Technology Integration: Hardened PL mounts with electronic pins record crucial real-time lens metadata (aperture, focus distance, depth of field) to simplify post-production and VFX workflows.
Uniform Color Balance & Match: Perfectly color-matched across the entire 5-lens set, ensuring visual consistency when switching focal lengths on set.
Standardized Mechanics: Most lenses in the series utilize a standard 110mm front diameter (with the wider 25mm utilizing 136mm) alongside consistent 0.8 MOD focus and iris drive gears for smooth, predictable matte box and wireless FIZ motor operation.
Bright T2.3 Aperture: Consistent T2.3 maximum speed across all five lenses, providing superb low-light capabilities and beautiful shallow depth-of-field control.
