Laowa Nanomorph 20mm T2.2 1.5X MFT (Amber) - MFT

Laowa Nanomorph 20mm T2.2 1.5X MFT (Amber) – Compact anamorphic 1.5x squeeze for cinematic widescreen and oval bokeh

The Laowa Nanomorph 20mm T2.2 1.5X is a compact anamorphic lens made for filmmakers who want a cinematic widescreen look without the bulk of traditional anamorphic glass. With a 1.5x squeeze ratio, this lens creates a natural widescreen aesthetic, oval bokeh and distinctive horizontal flares in the amber flare color. It fits Micro Four Thirds systems and is available in both native MFT and PL mounts.

Designed for run-and-gun and gimbal workflows

The Nanomorph 20mm keeps size and weight low so you can use it handheld, on a gimbal, or in fast-paced run-and-gun shoots. Filmmakers and content creators will find it practical for compact setups while still achieving an anamorphic look. Its compact build makes it suitable when you need mobility without sacrificing cinematic character.

Cinematic look and low-light performance

This lens features a fast T2.2 maximum aperture that makes it suitable for low-light environments and helps produce a shallow depth of field for subject separation. The 1.5x squeeze ratio compresses the image horizontally to create a widescreen feel while preserving oval bokeh and producing striking horizontal lens flares in the chosen flare color.

Cine-style controls and smooth operation

The lens ships with cine-standard 0.8 MOD gears on both the focus and aperture rings. You get a long 270° focus throw for precise focus pulls and minimal focus breathing for steadier compositions during focus changes. These features support professional operation on set and integrate well with follow-focus systems.

Build and options

The Nanomorph 20mm uses durable, lightweight all-metal construction. It comes in three flare color options—blue, amber, and silver—so you can match the flare look to your creative intent. Mount choices include native Micro Four Thirds and PL, allowing you to select the mount that fits your workflow and camera system.
