The Laowa Nanomorph 27mm T2.8 1.5X S35 (Silver) is a compact anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a true cinematic widescreen image. Filmmakers will notice oval bokeh and elongated flares that suit narrative filmmaking, commercials, music videos, and other creative cinematography.
This lens pairs a 27mm focal length with a fast T2.8 aperture. As a result, you get a natural wide-angle perspective and good control over depth of field, even in lower light. The lens uses precision anamorphic optics to preserve sharp detail while keeping focus breathing to a minimum.
In addition, the Nanomorph is compact and lightweight. You can use it handheld, on a gimbal, or on a drone where size and balance matter. The lens includes standard 0.8 mod geared rings for both focus and aperture, so you can integrate it cleanly with professional follow-focus setups. Controls are manual for precise adjustments.
This silver-flare version produces a neutral, subtle flare rather than a strong color tint. If you prefer other flare characters, Laowa offers blue and amber options as alternatives to this silver variant.
