Cooke S8/i
Image Fidelity & Focus
Sharpness balanced with smooth focus fall-off results in a greater sense of depth. Depth of field can be shallow yet forgiving. Performance is superb and uniform from infinity to close focus – there is no deterioration at close distances. With a maximum aperture of T1.4, Cooke S8/i lenses are among the fastest ever built for large format. Distortion is limited and focus breathing is minimized.
Handling & Adaptability
Spherical elements transmit light more efficiently, and maintain alignment better than aspherics, making maintenance and service more efficient. State-of-the-art lens metadata capability is standard. Available in PL with optional LPL add-on.
Flare & Bokeh
Bokeh is smooth, spherical and ring-free. Nine-leaf irises deliver smooth-edged bokeh with optimal vignetting and symmetrical shape throughout all focal lengths. Bokeh blossoms smoothly and naturally, round at the center of the frame and tending oval when off-axis. Flares are controlled but pleasing.
Image Circle
Cooke S8/i prime lenses comfortably cover an image circle of 46.3mm with exceptional illumination and minimal shading across the entire field.
Cinematic Heritage
Cooke S8/i FF prime lenses were designed by Iain Neil, Cooke’s Chief Optics Advisor and the designer behind the Panavision Primo line. In 2023, AMPAS presented Neil with the Gordon E. Sawyer Award, an Oscar statuette, for his “substantial, extensive and innovative lens designs.”
