The Laowa Nanomorph 27mm T2.8 1.5X S35 (Amber) is an anamorphic cine lens for Super35 cameras with a Fuji X mount. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze that produces a widescreen cinematic image.

Key optical characteristics

The lens provides a natural wide-angle perspective at 27mm, making it suitable for many types of filmmaking. With a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze, it creates widescreen framing and the characteristic oval bokeh associated with anamorphic optics. This Amber version produces warm, golden-hued streak flares that add cinematic warmth to footage.

Light performance and control

Thanks to its fast T2.8 aperture, the Nanomorph 27mm gives filmmakers practical control over depth of field and exposure. Consequently, you can work in lower light while still isolating subjects with shallow depth of field. In addition, the lens uses precision anamorphic optics designed to keep details sharp and minimize focus breathing during focus pulls.
