The Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens made for Super35 cinema cameras with a Sony E mount. It offers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to deliver a true cinematic widescreen appearance. The 50mm focal length provides a natural perspective with flattering compression, making this lens well suited to character-driven shots, portrait-style cinematography, and dramatic storytelling.
The lens combines a bright T2.4 aperture with precision-engineered anamorphic optics. The T2.4 aperture performs well in low-light situations and gives cinematographers precise control over depth of field. Optical design aims to deliver sharp details and minimal focus breathing, while smooth focus transitions support professional focusing workflows.
This version of the Nanomorph produces a classic blue anamorphic flare. The blue streaks create a high-contrast, cinematic aesthetic often associated with traditional Hollywood anamorphic lenses. That signature blue flare works well for stylized visuals and is particularly suited to action, thriller, and other stylized productions that benefit from pronounced horizontal flare lines.
The lens has a compact form factor and lightweight design that make it easy to use in a range of shooting scenarios. Filmmakers can deploy it on handheld rigs, gimbals, and drones without sacrificing handling or balance. Standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture ensure seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. Focus and aperture remain manual, providing full creative control for experienced operators.
The Nanomorph series offers multiple flare color options to let filmmakers tailor the lens character to a production. This model is the Blue version, providing the signature sci-fi and high-contrast look described above. Other available flare variants include amber and silver options, allowing different visual styles depending on creative needs.
