Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) - MFT

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

The Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras. It uses a 1.5× anamorphic squeeze to create a true cinematic widescreen look, while rendering oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares. The 65mm focal length gives a flattering compression effect that suits portrait shots, close-ups, and character-driven cinematography.

Key benefits for filmmakers

This lens combines a telephoto-like perspective with anamorphic imaging characteristics. As a result, it enhances subject isolation and provides natural compression for close-ups. Additionally, its compact size makes it usable in a wide range of shooting scenarios, from handheld interviews to gimbal and drone setups.

Optical performance and aperture

The lens features a bright T2.4 aperture that performs well in low-light conditions and allows precise depth-of-field control. Its precision-engineered anamorphic optics deliver sharp details, minimal focus breathing, and smooth focus transitions. Moreover, the 13-blade iris produces a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that helps separate subjects from the background.

Flare character — Silver version

This Silver version produces a neutral silver anamorphic flare for a clean, modern aesthetic. Unlike some traditional anamorphic lenses that introduce strong color casts in their flares, the silver flare remains subtle and versatile. Filmmakers can therefore choose this option when they want an adaptable anamorphic effect without dominant color shifts. Note that the lens family also offers blue and amber flare options for alternative visual styles.

Design, handling and integration

The lens has a compact and lightweight design that fits handheld, gimbal, and drone cinematography. Furthermore, it includes standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture to ensure seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. The lens provides manual focus and aperture control for full creative control, and it uses durable all-metal construction for reliable professional use.
