The Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras and supplied here in a Canon RF mount. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a true widescreen cinematic image. Moreover, the 65mm focal length creates flattering telephoto compression that suits portrait shots, close-ups, and character-driven cinematography.
With a bright T2.4 aperture, this lens performs well in low-light situations while giving you precise control over depth of field. Its anamorphic optics produce oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares, and the blue flare option gives a high-contrast, classic anamorphic streak that works especially well in sci-fi, action, and stylized productions. In addition, the lens’s compact form factor makes it suitable for handheld shooting, gimbal use, and drone setups.
This Blue flare version produces a classic blue anamorphic streak that emphasizes contrast and a signature cinematic look. Filmmakers often select this flare style to add a stylized edge to scenes; for example, it can strengthen the visual tone of sci‑fi sequences or heighten the drama in action and stylized projects. Additionally, the 65mm focal length helps isolate subjects in close-ups through telephoto compression and shallow depth of field.
