Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) – 1.5x anamorphic squeeze for cinematic widescreen

The Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens made for Super35 cinema cameras. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a true cinematic widescreen image with oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares. The 50mm focal length provides a natural perspective and flattering compression, which suits character-driven shots, portrait-style cinematography, and dramatic storytelling.

Optical performance and image character

With a bright T2.4 maximum aperture, this lens performs well in low-light situations while giving you precise control over depth of field. Its precision-engineered anamorphic optics reproduce sharp details while keeping focus breathing to a minimum, so focus transitions remain smooth and predictable. The lens uses a 13-blade iris, creating a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that helps separate subjects from backgrounds.

The Blue version produces classic blue anamorphic flares. These striking blue streaks add a high-contrast, cinematic aesthetic that many filmmakers use to achieve a sci‑fi or stylized look. The lens also renders beautiful oval highlights that enhance subject separation and support a film-like visual style.

Design, handling and compatibility

The lens’s compact design makes it especially useful for handheld work, gimbal rigs, and drone setups where size and weight matter. It features standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture, allowing seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. In addition, manual focus and aperture control give filmmakers full creative control over framing and exposure. The all-metal construction provides professional-grade durability for regular use on set.
