Classic polishing techniques ensure the highest level of precision.
Regular, accurate measurements are key to delivering consistent quality.
Traditional coating machines are used to deposit a thin film onto the glass.
Meticulous edging ensures that glass diameters are always faultlessly rounded.
Lenses are rigorously trialled, checked, modified, cleaned and rechecked.
The S4/i series are a fully comprehensive lineup of 18 matched focal lengths. S4/i lenses are designed to provide maximum performance at full aperture with superior control of flare, distortion and spherical aberration – ensuring the Cooke Look remains true across the series.
Ergonomically designed to have smooth and accurate travel – whilst utilising precision mechanics to provide a consistent feel in operation through the entire focus movement.
All S4/i series prime lenses have standardised 0.8 MOD focus and iris drive gears.
All S4/i prime lenses are colour balanced and colour matched – ensuring consistency across the series.
All lenses have factory calibrated focus scales with clearly identifiable distance marks.
Durable and hard wearing surface finish to meet the needs of the most demanding environmental conditions.
All S4/i prime lenses cover Super35 format.
The Cooke /i Technology ecosystem provides critical lens metadata such as focus and iris position as well as individually calibrated lens distortion and shading maps. Suitable for the most modern VFX applications such as Virtual Production shooting.
Optimised for the series and suitable for all shooting applications.
The S4/i series of prime lenses feature an eight-leaf linear module iris assembly, providing an aperture range of T2-T22.
Precision PL mount with /i Technology electrical contacts.
All S4/i series prime lenses are designed for full performance and reliability with a minimum of downtime.
