The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) is an anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras with a Fuji X mount. It offers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze that produces a true widescreen cinematic appearance, along with distinctive oval bokeh and horizontally stretched flares. The 35mm focal length delivers a natural, balanced perspective suited to many narrative and creative filmmaking situations.
With a bright T2.4 aperture, this lens performs well in lower-light environments while allowing you to control depth of field precisely. Its precision-engineered anamorphic optics preserve sharp image details, reduce focus breathing, and provide smooth focus transitions during shots. Those optical characteristics help maintain a professional cinematic look across a variety of scenes.
The Nanomorph 35mm uses a 13-blade iris to create a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that improves subject separation. You get classic anamorphic visual elements such as oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares. This Silver version produces a neutral silver anamorphic flare, offering a cleaner and more modern aesthetic compared with stronger color-cast flares. In addition to the silver option, the lens family is available with blue and amber flare variants, allowing filmmakers to choose the flare color that best fits their visual style.
The lens comes in a compact and lightweight design that makes it suitable for handheld shots, gimbal rigs, and drone use. You also get standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture, ensuring compatibility with professional follow-focus systems for reliable repeatable control. Focus and aperture are manual, giving you direct creative control over each setup. The lens also features durable all-metal construction for dependable, professional-grade reliability on set.
