Cooke AP3 FF 85mm T2.4 1.5x Anamorphic Lens
Product information "Cooke AP3 FF 85mm T2.4 1.5x Anamorphic Lens"
Tele cinematic compression and isolation
The Cooke AP3 FF 85mm T2.4 1.5x Anamorphic Lens is designed for controlled telephoto anamorphic cinematography, offering strong subject isolation, elegant background compression, and refined cinematic depth. It is ideal for portraits, close-ups, and emotionally driven narrative sequences.
The 1.5x anamorphic squeeze creates characteristic oval bokeh and subtle horizontal flare behavior, while maintaining sharp optical performance and controlled rendering across the full frame image area.
Despite its telephoto nature, the lens remains compact and highly portable, reflecting the AP3 design philosophy of lightweight anamorphic performance without compromise. The anodised housing ensures durability in demanding production environments, while maintaining ergonomic handling.
The dual focus scale system and precise mechanical alignment across the AP3 series enable fast lens changes with consistent focus and iris motor positioning, improving efficiency on set.
Class-leading close focus capability enhances creative flexibility, enabling intimate framing even at longer focal lengths.
The AP3 system is optimized for modern mirrorless cinema workflows and maintains consistent optical and mechanical behavior across the full series.
The AP3 series is supplied with a Sony E-Mount as standard configuration. RF, L, and M mounts are available as interchangeable rear mount options.
