The Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 coverage and offered here in an MFT mount. It provides a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to create a true cinematic widescreen look. Filmmakers will appreciate its natural 50mm perspective, bright T2.4 aperture, and classic blue anamorphic flare option.
This lens targets Super35 cinema cameras while being available in an MFT mount. Consequently, it integrates easily with mirrorless and cinema systems that accept MFT lenses. Its compact size and light weight make it suitable for a variety of rigs and shooting styles.
The 1.5x anamorphic squeeze delivers wide cinematic framing without cropping the vertical perspective. With a 50mm focal length, the lens renders a natural perspective with flattering compression that suits character-driven shots and portrait-style cinematography.
Thanks to a bright T2.4 aperture, the lens performs well in low-light conditions and gives you precise control over depth of field. The precision-engineered anamorphic optics produce sharp detail, reduce focus breathing, and enable smooth focus transitions during a shot.
A 13-blade iris creates a shallow depth of field and smooth, artistic bokeh that enhances subject separation. The lens also produces oval bokeh typical of anamorphic optics, which contributes to a cinematic look.
This model produces a classic blue anamorphic flare. The blue streaks and high-contrast highlights evoke the signature sci‑fi and traditional Hollywood anamorphic aesthetic. As stated by the manufacturer, the Nanomorph series is available in blue, amber, and silver flare options, allowing filmmakers to choose the flare color that best suits an action, thriller, or stylized production.
Use this lens for character-driven scenes, portraits, and dramatic storytelling where a natural perspective and cinematic compression are desired. The blue anamorphic flare and high-contrast look make it well-suited to action, thriller, and stylized productions that benefit from striking horizontal streaks and a distinct anamorphic character.
