The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) is a compact anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras.

Designed for cinematic storytelling

This lens suits narrative filmmaking, commercials, music videos, and creative cinematography. Its 35mm focal length gives balanced, natural framing in many cinematic applications. Because the lens targets Super35 sensors, it integrates cleanly into common cinema workflows.

Optical characteristics and low-light performance

The lens features a bright T2.4 aperture that performs well in low-light conditions while enabling precise control over depth of field. Laowa’s precision-engineered anamorphic optics deliver sharp details and minimize focus breathing, so you keep subject framing consistent during focus transitions.

The 13-blade iris produces a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that helps isolate subjects and create pleasing background separation. The lens also renders beautiful oval bokeh and enhanced subject separation typical of anamorphic optics.

Flare options and this Silver version

The Nanomorph line offers blue, amber, and silver flare options to tailor flare color and character. This specific 35mm S35 model produces a neutral silver anamorphic flare. The silver flare yields a cleaner, more modern anamorphic effect without strong color casts, making it versatile across different looks and productions.

Mechanical design and handling

The lens has a compact, lightweight design that makes it suitable for handheld shooting, gimbals, and drone setups. It includes standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture for seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. The lens uses manual focus and manual aperture control, putting full creative control in the operator’s hands.

Construction is durable with an all-metal build designed for professional use. The lens emphasizes smooth focus transitions and reliable mechanical operation on set.
