Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) – 1.5x Anamorphic Squeeze for Cinematic Widescreen

The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is an anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras with a Sony E mount. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a widescreen cinematic look while retaining a natural 35mm perspective. Filmmakers can use this lens for narrative work, commercials, music videos, and other creative cinematography where anamorphic character matters.

Optical performance and image character

With a bright T2.4 aperture, the lens performs well in low-light situations and gives precise control over depth of field. Its 1.5x squeeze creates elongated horizontal highlights and yields oval bokeh, producing a distinct anamorphic aesthetic.

Furthermore, the lens features precision-engineered anamorphic optics that keep details sharp and minimise focus breathing. The 13-blade iris contributes to a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that helps separate subjects from their backgrounds.

Distinctive blue anamorphic flare

This Blue version produces classic blue anamorphic flares reminiscent of traditional Hollywood anamorphic glass. The blue streaks add a striking visual signature that suits sci-fi, action, and stylised productions. Alternatively, filmmakers can choose other flare tones as needed for their project.

Design, handling and compatibility

The Nanomorph 35mm is compact and lightweight, which makes it suitable for handheld, gimbal, and drone setups. Because of its size, it integrates smoothly into run-and-gun workflows and stabilised camera systems where space and balance matter.

In addition, the lens uses standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture. As a result, operators can pair it with professional follow-focus systems for accurate, repeatable control. The lens offers manual focus and aperture control, allowing full creative control over focus pulls and exposure adjustments.

Build quality

The lens uses durable all-metal construction to withstand professional use. Its mechanical design supports repeated mounting and rigging on a variety of camera rigs common in film production.
