Since the 1930’s the famous “Cooke Look” has added a combination of warmth, separation, smooth focus fall-off and superior skin tones to some of the best imagery ever captured. You can add the classic Cooke Look to your project with one of our lovely Cooke lenses. We have the tiny new Cooke SP3’s for mirrorless cameras, the Panchro Classics for larger cinema cameras, and the vintage Cooke 18-100 zoom, a favorite of Sir Roger Deakins. Come test them all today at Braincell Camera.
