An embodiment of cinematic excellence, the 32mm T2.3 Anamorphic/i 1.8x Plus Lens for PL Mount by Cooke is a testament to the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology. This high-quality, professional-grade lens is engineered to elevate large format production, offering filmmakers the quintessential anamorphic characteristics such as signature flare and captivating oval bokeh.

Crafted for optical brilliance, the lens delivers superb mechanical and optical performance, ensuring precise control of flare, distortion, veiling glare, and spherical aberrations even when shooting wide open at full aperture. The balanced coverage circle comfortably covers a full 24 x 36 still size sensor with a 1.8x squeeze, hitting the perfect sweet spot for filmmakers seeking that cinematic widescreen aesthetic.

Versatility is at the heart of this lens series, with eight focal lengths available to cater to a variety of shooting requirements, all while maintaining the revered 'Cooke Look' that professionals have come to trust. The lens is also equipped with /i Technology, which captures frame-by-frame digital information, crucial for VFX and post-production precision.

Cooke's commitment to innovation is evident in the meticulous grinding and polishing techniques employed to ensure maximum accuracy and performance. The metrology process is exhaustive, gathering extensive insights and measurements to guarantee the highest quality output. The coating and cementing process involves high-temperature vacuum evaporation of minerals to produce a uniform thin film on the glass, while the edging ensures perfectly round glass diameters. Each lens undergoes rigorous testing, modification, cleaning, and rechecking to meet Cooke's exacting standards.

The optical design of the Anamorphic/i series is optimized for both film and digital cameras, reducing lateral color aberration and delivering a natural, organic bokeh effect. The series boasts a 2x squeeze factor for Super 35 formats in a 2.4:1 aspect ratio, ensuring cinematic scope and scale. Color consistency is paramount, with all Anamorphic/i lenses being color balanced and matched to ensure uniformity across the series.

The aperture range of T2.3-T22, controlled by an eleven-leaf linear module iris assembly, provides filmmakers with the flexibility to create in varying lighting conditions. The ergonomically designed focus movement is smooth and precise, featuring precision mechanics for a consistent operational feel throughout the entire focus range. Factory calibrated focus scales with clear distance marks enhance usability and accuracy.

The Cooke /i Technology ecosystem not only provides critical lens metadata such as focus and iris position but also supports modern VFX applications like virtual production shooting. The precision PL Mount with /i Technology and standardized electrical contacts ensure seamless integration with a wide range of cameras.

Externally, the lens features a durable and hard-wearing surface finish, ready to withstand the rigors of challenging environmental conditions. The standardized 0.8 MOD focus and iris drive gears, along with a fixed common front diameter of 110mm, facilitate compatibility with a variety of accessories.

Optimized for balance in weight and size, the 32mm T2.3 Anamorphic/i 1.8x Plus Lens is designed for reliability and minimal downtime, ensuring that it remains a dependable choice for professional filmmakers seeking unparalleled performance and enduring quality.
