The Cooke 180mm T2.8 Anamorphic/i SF Prime Lens adds unique anamorphic characteristics to the distinguished-sounding, sharp Cooke optics. This lens accentuates lens flare, oval defocus shapes, and optical aberrations, harmonizing with Cooke's standard anamorphic offerings. Suitable for both digital and film medium, the lens covers large image sensors up to full frame. The lens achieves 1.8 times anamorphic compression, balancing superb pixel use and the well-known anamorphic aesthetic. Excellence in image fidelity, minimizing flare and distortion, is maintained across the entire frame and through the full aperture range from T2.3 to T22. Color consistency is a hallmark of this series, ensuring seamless integration with other Cooke lenses.
The robust PL mount and cable connection of the lens transmit vital lens details via Cooke's /i Technology to compatible camera systems. Data such as lens focal length, aperture settings, focus parameters, and depth of field figures are shared in both imperial and metric units.
Cooke's 180mm Anamorphic/i SF lens boasts a minimum focus distance of 5.3 feet from the lens front, with focus scales marked in feet on one side and meters on the reverse. Durability is a given with the tough, anodized finish, and compatibility with various filmmaking gear is ensured through industry-standard 0.8 MOD geared rings. The extensive 270° barrel rotation and the greater number of focus positions, coupled with Cooke's refined focus mechanics, contribute to precise focus adjustments, vital for film production. A uniform 110mm front diameter across most of the Cooke anamorphic lineup, including this 180mm, facilitates straightforward accessory usage.
