The Laowa Nanomorph 60mm T2.9 1.5X S35 Macro blends anamorphic imaging with true macro capability. Designed for Super 35 sensors, it offers a 1.5x squeeze ratio and a real 1:2 macro reproduction ratio. As a result, filmmakers can capture detailed close-ups and wide anamorphic frames using the same lens.
With its 60mm focal length, this lens suits portraits, product shots, and creative storytelling where subject isolation and fine detail matter. The constant T2.9 aperture maintains consistent exposure across the frame and supports a shallow depth of field for selective focus.
Meanwhile, the 1.5x squeeze produces classic anamorphic traits: oval bokeh, immersive field compression, and horizontal lens flares. Therefore, you can move between macro detail and cinematic anamorphic aesthetics without changing lenses.
The Nanomorph is available in Arri PL and Canon EF mounts. Thus, it adapts to both cinema rigs and DSLR/mirrorless systems. In addition, Laowa offers three flare color options — blue, amber, and silver — so you can pick the visual character that best fits your project.
This lens includes standard 0.8 MOD cine gears for both focus and aperture, which makes it straightforward to integrate with follow focus systems. It also features a long focus throw and minimal focus breathing to support precise focus pulls and consistent framing during pulls.
Finally, the lens uses an all-metal cine housing for robust handling and durability on set.
