The Cooke Anamorphic/i FF 1.8x lenses are a set of high-end cinema lenses designed for professional filmmaking. They are known for providing the classic “Cooke Look” on modern full-frame sensors. Their 1.8x squeeze ratio offers a balance between the aesthetic of traditional 2x anamorphic lenses and the technical requirements of large-format digital sensors.
Key Features and Benefits
1.8x Squeeze Factor: This “sweet spot” ratio allows these lenses to cover full-frame sensors without losing too many pixels, producing a natural-looking widescreen image. It’s a great middle ground between traditional 2x anamorphic lenses and other squeeze ratios.
Full-Frame Coverage: Designed to cover large format sensors like those in the Alexa LF and Sony VENICE, providing a wider field of view and a shallower depth of field than Super35 lenses.
The “Cooke Look”: Delivers a warm, organic, and cinematic aesthetic with smooth focus fall-off and pleasing skin tones. It also creates the signature oval bokeh and distinctive anamorphic flares.
/i Technology: This proprietary Cooke system automatically records and transmits vital lens metadata to the camera, including focal distance, aperture, and depth of field. This data is invaluable for post-production, VFX, and virtual production workflows.
Color-Matched: All Cooke Anamorphic/i FF lenses are color-balanced and matched, ensuring a consistent look across the entire set and with other Cooke lens series.
Robust Build: They are built with a durable, scratch-resistant hard-anodized finish and have a cam-style focus mechanism for smooth, precise focus pulls.
