The Laowa Nanomorph S35 Prime 2-Lens Bundle pairs two anamorphic primes — 65mm and 80mm T2.4 — on an L Mount. Filmmakers receive authentic anamorphic characteristics with a 1.5X squeeze factor, making this set suitable for portraiture, close-ups, and dramatic medium to telephoto compositions.
These lenses produce the classic anamorphic look. You get oval bokeh, natural depth compression, and an enhanced horizontal field of view thanks to the 1.5X squeeze. As a result, the bundle helps create the widescreen aesthetic associated with cinematic productions.
The optical design focuses on minimized distortion, chromatic aberration, and unwanted flaring while preserving the artistic qualities filmmakers seek. Additionally, you can choose between three distinctive flare styles — Amber, Blue, or Silver — to match mood and creative intent.
Both lenses cover Super 35 sensors and are engineered for consistent edge-to-edge sharpness across the frame. This ensures compatible rendering and matched performance when you shoot with both focal lengths on the same production.
Laowa designed these primes to be compact and lightweight, making them easy to use on handheld rigs, gimbals, and tripods. The lenses feature rugged construction for reliable on-set use, and the manual focus mechanism operates smoothly for precise focus pulls.
Each of these features supports practical filmmaking needs: the focal lengths cover portrait and close-up work, the T2.4 aperture helps in lower light, and the flare options expand your creative palette while maintaining optical control on Super 35 sensors.
Everything listed above ships with the bundle so you have protective caps, pouches, and documentation ready for immediate use on set or when travelling.
