Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) — 1.5x anamorphic squeeze for cinematic widescreen

The Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is a compact anamorphic cine lens designed for Super35 cinema cameras. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze that produces a true widescreen cinematic look. Filmmakers get oval bokeh, elongated horizontal flares, and natural telephoto compression for portrait-style framing and close-ups.

Performance and optical characteristics

With a bright T2.4 aperture, this lens performs well in low-light situations and offers precise control over depth of field. The precision-engineered anamorphic optics maintain sharp details and minimize focus breathing, helping you keep subject framing steady during focus pulls. A 13-blade iris creates smooth, artistic bokeh and enhances subject separation in tight shots.

The Blue version of this Nanomorph produces classic blue anamorphic flares. These high-contrast streaks add a signature Hollywood-style look that suits sci-fi, action, and stylized productions. The 65mm focal length also provides flattering compression for portraits and character-driven cinematography, keeping the subject prominent while rendering pleasing background separation.

Design and handling

The lens uses standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture, enabling straightforward integration with professional follow-focus systems. Its compact, lightweight design makes it suitable for handheld work, gimbal setups, and drone cinematography where size and balance matter. Controls are manual for both focus and aperture, giving filmmakers full, tactile creative control.
