The Laowa Nanomorph S35 Prime 3-Lens Bundle (27mm, 35mm, 50mm) (Silver) delivers a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze tailored for Super35 cinema cameras. These three lenses provide a cinematic widescreen look, oval bokeh, and distinctive horizontal flare characteristics while mounting to Sony E. The set covers a useful range of focal lengths for a variety of filmmaking situations, from wide establishing shots to intimate close-ups.
These lenses were created with Super35 cameras in mind. As a result, they match the image circle and visual character expected in Super35 production. In practice, that makes them suitable for many cinema-style shoots where you want an anamorphic aesthetic on a Super35 sensor while using a Sony E mount.
The bundle includes three focal lengths: 27mm, 35mm, and 50mm. Each lens offers a fast T-stop to help in low-light scenes and to control depth of field precisely. Specifically, the 27mm has a T2.8 aperture, while the 35mm and 50mm each offer T2.4. Together, these apertures allow you to manage exposure and separation between subject and background effectively.
All three lenses use a 13-blade iris that contributes to a smooth, shallow depth of field and pleasing oval bokeh. The anamorphic 1.5x squeeze produces a wide, cinematic frame and elongated horizontal flare characteristics. This bundle’s optical design aims for sharp details, minimal focus breathing, and smooth focus transitions during pulls.
This silver version produces neutral silver anamorphic flares rather than strong color-cast flares. Consequently, the flare retains a cleaner, more modern aesthetic and a more natural overall look. That subtlety makes this bundle a good option when you need anamorphic character without a strong color bias in highlights and streaks.
