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

The Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) is an anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cameras and Canon RF mount systems. It delivers a true cinematic widescreen look with a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze while remaining compact and lightweight for run-and-gun setups.

Designed for Super35 cinematography

This lens pairs a 65mm focal length with a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to create flattering telephoto compression and a widescreen aesthetic suited to portrait shots, close-ups, and character-driven cinematography. Filmmakers will notice oval bokeh, elongated horizontal flares, and enhanced subject separation that help define cinematic imagery.

Optical performance and aperture

With a bright T2.4 aperture, the lens performs well in low-light situations and gives you precise depth-of-field control. The precision-engineered anamorphic optics prioritize sharp details, while the design minimizes focus breathing and supports smooth focus transitions during shots.

Flare options and visual style

Laowa offers this Nanomorph series in different flare colours. This silver version produces a neutral, silver anamorphic flare for a clean and modern look. Compared to stronger colour-cast flares, the silver flare provides a subtler, more adaptable aesthetic, making it a useful choice when you want an anamorphic effect without heavy colour bias.

Mechanical features for professional use

The lens includes standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture, ensuring seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. It offers manual focus and aperture control for full creative handling. Additionally, the 13-blade iris helps produce a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh, contributing to pleasing subject isolation.

The Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) features durable all-metal construction for professional-grade reliability. Its compact and lightweight form factor also makes it well suited for handheld shooting, gimbal stabilization, and drone cinematography, where size and weight are important considerations.
