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 made for Super35 cinema cameras with a Fuji X mount. It delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze to produce a true cinematic widescreen image while remaining compact and suitable for rigged or run-and-gun setups.

Key optical features and benefits

With a 65mm focal length and a bright T2.4 aperture, this lens balances flattering compression with strong low-light performance. The 65mm focal length gives a natural telephoto compression, which helps isolate subjects and is well suited to portrait-style framing, close-ups, and character-driven cinematography. The T2.4 aperture provides control over depth of field, enabling subject separation and precise creative focus decisions.

The lens produces oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares typical of anamorphic optics. This Silver version creates a neutral silver anamorphic flare that yields a clean, modern look without strong color casts. The 13-blade iris contributes to a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that enhances subject separation.

Design and handling

The Nanomorph 65mm features precision-engineered anamorphic optics that aim for sharp detail, minimal focus breathing, and smooth focus transitions. It uses manual focus and manual aperture control, giving filmmakers direct control over focus pulls and exposure adjustments.

Its compact, lightweight design makes the lens suitable for handheld work, gimbal stabilizers, and drone setups. For professional rig integration, both focus and aperture rings are standard 0.8 mod geared, allowing seamless attachment to follow-focus systems and consistent control during takes.

Build and aesthetic options

The lens is built with durable all-metal construction for professional-grade reliability. Laowa offers the Nanomorph series in multiple flare finishes; this Fuji X mount version produces a neutral silver flare. Other available flare options in the series include blue and amber, allowing filmmakers to choose the visual character that best fits their production.

Typical use cases

• Portraits and close-ups where subject isolation and compression are desired
• Character-driven scenes that benefit from cinematic widescreen framing
• Handheld, gimbal, or drone cinematography where a compact anamorphic option is required
• Projects seeking elongated horizontal flares with a neutral, modern aesthetic
