The Laowa Nanomorph 80mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Blue) is an anamorphic cine lens built for filmmakers who want a true widescreen look with compressed backgrounds and characteristic oval bokeh. It uses a 1.5X squeeze ratio to create classic anamorphic visuals while staying optimized for Super 35 sensors. The lens mounts for Sony E and comes in a blue flare option as part of the Nanomorph series.
The 80mm focal length delivers a flattering telephoto perspective that suits portrait shots, narrative filmmaking, and close-up cinematography. Because it emphasizes subject isolation and background compression, the lens works well when you need a cinematic, story-driven look.
The Nanomorph 80mm T2.4 retains Laowa’s signature design found across the series. You can choose between blue, amber, or silver flare options to match different creative styles. This particular offering is the blue flare version, which produces the aesthetic associated with that option.
The lens provides coverage for Super 35 sensors and is designed to keep image sharpness and minimal distortion across that format. Its compact and lightweight construction makes it versatile for handheld work, gimbal setups, and rig-based shooting, allowing you to move between these modes without changing lenses.
The Nanomorph 80mm features smooth manual focus and aperture control. These controls allow precise adjustments during production, letting camera operators and focus pullers achieve consistent, professional results in a range of shooting environments.
