Cooke Panchro/i Classic 18mm T/2.2 (S35, PL)

The Cooke 18mm Panchro/i Classic Prime Lens combines the timeless warmth of a vintage Cooke Speed Panchro with the modern convenience of the i/Technology lens data capture system. Ideal for both digital cinema and film cameras, this lens features focus scales marked in feet and covers image formats up to Super 35.

Among its focal lengths, the 18mm prime incorporates a nine-blade iris for creating cinematic bokeh. It ensures exceptional optical performance with corrections for aberration, flare, and distortion across the entire image area.

Color-matched with Cooke's S4/i, 5/i, mini S4/i, and Anamorphic/i lenses, the Panchro/i Classic Primes maintain visual consistency across different lens series. Each lens includes a hardened PL mount and supports Cooke's /i Technology for transmitting essential lens data such as focal length, aperture, focus, and depth-of-field to compatible cameras.

The 18mm Panchro/i Classic Prime Lens features a 4.6-inch minimum focus distance, and is constructed with 0.8-mod geared focus and iris rings for seamless integration with follow focus, zoom control, and wireless F/I/Z systems. It weighs a relatively light 3.5 pounds and measures a compact 3.4 inches in length.

The lens barrel provides ample focus marks and utilizes Cooke's cam-style focus movement for precise focusing.
