Cooke 135mm S5/i T1.4 PL Mount Cine Lens

Cooke 135mm S5/i T1.4 PL Mount Cine Lens

Cooke 5/i optics offer superb optical and mechanical performance, control of flare, distortion, veiling glare and spherical aberrations at full aperture. The cam-type focus mechanism allows for smooth focus adjustments. Modular construction increases ease of maintenance and serviceability. Cooke 5/i Prime Lenses were designed and developed in close technical collaboration with industry professionals. They are colour-matched and compatible with Cooke S4/i, miniS4/i, CXX 15-40 mm T2 S4/i Zoom, 18-100mm T3.0 and 25-250mm T3.7 and the SK4 16mm lenses.

All of the 5/i Prime lenses are supplied with /i Technology, and are designed for all PL mounted professional motion picture film and electronic cameras. The /i Technology provides cinematographers and camera operators with vital information on lens setting, focusing distance, aperture and depth-of-field, hyperfocal distance, serial number, owner data, lens type and focal length in both metric and footage measurements. For zoom lenses, the zoom position is displayed.

Focus Illumination
See in the dark -- with T1.4 speed and a focus ring that illuminates when you need it. External lamps are no longer necessary for the focus puller to see in the dark because this new design incorporates a simple on/off and dimmer to adjust the level of illumination desired on the aperture ring. You now have the visibility you need without affecting the light coming into the camera.

External Finish
A scratch resistant PTFE hard anodised finish is provided on all Cooke lenses, providing a durable, hard-wearing surface to meet the most demanding environmental conditions.

Focus Movement
Our Academy Award® winning cam-style focus movement coupled with the added benefit of a large lens barrel diameter, has allowed for an increased number of focus markings, particularly at close focus. Spherical aberration has been controlled throughout the range of focal lengths to eliminate compensation of changes in back focus with aperture. A four-point contact bearing provides a smooth positive backlash-free movement. 

Compatibility
All Cooke 5/i primes have a common fixed front diameter of 110mm, with a focus drive gear of 140T x 0.8 mod and an iris drive gear of 134T x 0.8. (Except the 135mm)

Optical Design
The optics are designed to give maximum performance at full aperture with superior control of flare, distortion and spherical aberration.

Iris
A seven-leaf linear module iris assembly is fitted into the Cooke 5/i primes with an aperture range of T1.4 to T22.
