The Cooke SP3 6-Lens Set is a groundbreaking prime lens series based on the legendary Speed Panchro, one of the most influential optics in cinema history. Reimagined for the digital age, the SP3 series is optically and mechanically optimized for full-frame mirrorless cameras, allowing cinematographers to bring the iconic "Cooke Look" to a wider range of creative projects.
Cinematic Performance and The Cooke Look
The SP3 set delivers heightened dimensionality and contrast, rendering images with a realism that defines professional cinematography. These lenses are celebrated for their ability to capture believable skin tones and character. While providing outstanding resolution, the SP3 features a signature fall-off toward the edge of the frame, creating the classic cinematic aesthetic favored by Hollywood filmmakers. Specialized optical coatings ensure precise flare control and consistent color matching across the entire 18mm to 100mm range.
Precision Engineering for Professionals
Designed for seamless workflows, the SP3 series features a shared architecture. Focus and iris mechanics are aligned across all six lenses, enabling rapid lens changes without adjusting motor positions. Each lens is housed in a tough anodized shell, remaining small and lightweight for gimbal or handheld use. The dual focus scales (imperial and metric) and smooth axis feel provide the tactile precision required for high-end productions.
Versatile Mount System
Every lens in the set comes with an E-mount installed. To ensure maximum compatibility with modern systems, users can claim an additional mount (RF, L, or M) directly from Cooke, making this set a future-proof investment for various camera platforms.
