Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Amber) – 1.5x Anamorphic Squeeze for Cinematic Widescreen

The Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Amber) is an anamorphic cine lens made for Super35 cameras with a Canon RF mount. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a widescreen cinematic look. The lens pairs a medium-tele focal length with a bright T2.4 aperture to support portrait-style framing, close-ups, and character-driven cinematography.

What this lens offers

Filmmakers will find the lens useful for controlled depth-of-field, flattering compression, and a distinct anamorphic character. In particular, the amber flare version produces warm, golden streaks that add richness to images. As a result, the lens suits period dramas, naturalistic lighting, and projects where a softer, organic cinematic aesthetic is desirable.

Design and handling

The lens uses a compact form factor that helps when you need to mount it on gimbals, drones, or a handheld rig. Additionally, it comes with standard 0.8 mod gearing on both the focus and aperture rings, so you can attach professional follow-focus units without modification. Because the lens provides manual control over focus and aperture, you can execute precise, repeatable focus pulls and exposure adjustments during production.

Optical character

The optical design focuses on delivering the classic anamorphic aesthetics. It produces elongated horizontal flares and oval-shaped bokeh. Moreover, the 13-blade iris contributes to a soft, cinematic out-of-focus rendering while helping to separate subjects from the background. The amber flare option gives footage a warmer tone and organic flare streaks, which can influence the mood and period feel of a scene.
