Cooke Varotal 18-100mm Zoom

This incredible zoom covers all the focal lengths of a set of primes at a fast T3. It is sharp, but has that smooth, flattering Cooke look and awesome wide-open performance. With an amazing minimum focus distance of 2' 4", this lens can get extreme close-ups. At wide focal lengths the lens has ZERO breathing and at longer focal lengths it's extremely minimal.

This lens makes fantastic images, and there’s a reason half the films of the 20th and 21st centuries have been shot with Cooke lenses. Also worth noting, the 18-100 pairs really well with the popular vintage Cooke Speed Panchros, having similar color and contrast. This is the most current version of this classic lens, and it's in perfect optical and mechanical condition.
