The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Amber) is a compact anamorphic cine lens designed for Super35 cinema cameras. It delivers a true cinematic widescreen look through its 1.5x anamorphic squeeze and produces warm amber flares for a golden, organic image character.

Key features

This lens combines a natural 35mm perspective with anamorphic visual traits. In particular, it:

• Provides a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze for cinematic widescreen framing.
• Uses a T2.4 aperture for solid low-light performance and precise depth-of-field control.
• Includes a 13-blade iris to produce a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh.
• Creates warm amber anamorphic flares that generate golden, sunlit streaks and a rich cinematic feel.
• Renders beautiful oval bokeh and improved subject separation for narrative-focused imagery.
• Features precision-engineered anamorphic optics to keep details sharp and reduce focus breathing.
• Offers standard 0.8 mod geared rings on focus and aperture for follow-focus compatibility.
• Operates with manual focus and aperture control to give filmmakers full creative control.
• Uses a durable all-metal construction for professional-grade reliability.

Design, handling and compatibility

The Nanomorph 35mm is compact and lightweight, which makes it suitable for a range of production setups. For example, you can use it handheld, on a gimbal, or on a drone where size and weight matter. Additionally, the standard 0.8 mod geared rings make it straightforward to integrate with professional follow-focus systems and other rigging gear.

Because the lens is manual, it caters to filmmakers who prioritize direct, tactile control over focus and aperture. Finally, Laowa offers the Nanomorph in multiple flare options (blue, amber, and silver), and this Amber version specifically emphasizes warm, golden flare tones.
