Cooke Introduces Six S4 FF/i Full-Frame Cinema Primes
Cinematography World reported Cooke's S4 FF/i announcement on Oct. 22. The PL- or LPL-mount series comprises six T2.0 focal lengths: 18, 25, 35, 50, 75 and 100 mm. Cooke's specification lists close-focus distances from 280 to 650 mm measured from the camera sensor, varying by focal length. Comparative claims about optical performance require independent testing.
GLOBAL IMAGING BRIEF
Why it matters
Analysis: The full-frame range gives cinematographers an additional lens set to compare for coverage, handling, color matching and close-focus behavior. Production teams should test their own camera format and intended working distance rather than infer an advantage from promotional language.
