Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) - DL

Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) – 1.5x anamorphic squeeze for true cinematic widescreen

The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Silver) is a compact anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras. It produces a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze that creates a widescreen cinematic look, with horizontally stretched flares and oval bokeh. Filmmakers can use it for narrative work, commercials, music videos, and other creative cinematography where an anamorphic aesthetic is desired.

Design and optical character

The lens features precision-engineered anamorphic optics that deliver sharp image details while keeping focus breathing to a minimum. With a bright T2.4 aperture it performs well in low light and lets you control depth of field precisely. A 13-blade iris contributes to a shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that enhances subject separation.

This Silver version produces neutral silver anamorphic flares. Compared with more color-cast flares, the silver flare provides a cleaner and more modern look. The result is an anamorphic aesthetic that remains versatile across different production styles.

Handling and compatibility

The Nanomorph 35mm is compact and lightweight, making it suitable for handheld shooting, gimbal rigs, and drone setups. The lens includes standard 0.8 mod geared rings on focus and aperture, ensuring compatibility with professional follow-focus systems. Both focus and aperture are manual, giving filmmakers full creative control over their images.

Build quality and options

The lens uses a durable all-metal construction for professional-grade reliability in production environments. Laowa offers the Nanomorph series with different flare color options — blue, amber, and silver — and this model is the neutral silver option for a refined anamorphic look.
