Cooke Optics Debuts Latest Lenses at SET Expo

Cooke Optics, the multi-award winning manufacturer of precision lenses for film and television, will present a range of its latest lenses at SET Expo running from August 30-September 1, 2016 in Saõ Paulo, Brazil.

On display at Stand 168 will be the brand new true front Anamorphic/i 35-140mm zoom lens that will make its first showing in Latin America, alongside the acclaimed Cooke S4/i, 5/i, miniS4/i and Anamorphic/i prime lens families. 

The new front Anamorphic/i 35-140mm zoom lens matches the color and depth of field characteristics of the existing Anamorphic/i prime lenses in the set with T3.1-22 aperture and 90° rotation of iris scale. This high-profile lens offers shooting from very wide angle to telephoto with a 4x zoom ratio and 2x anamorphic squeeze with oval bokeh throughout zoom and focus.

Cooke Optics will be sharing the stand with ZGC, who will demo the new Qinematiq Image + distance measurement tool. This unique system creates 3D images in real-time, measures the distance of selected subjects and displays depth of field area.

Those wanting to watch cinematographers chat about their experience in filmmaking should head to the Cooke Optics TV web channel. Fast approaching its one year anniversary, the channel features free weekly informative interviews from renowned cinematographers including Ed Lachman and John Mathieson speaking about their filmmaking experiences and most recently, Fabian Wagner on his experience in shooting “Game of Thrones.”
