Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Amber) – 1.5x anamorphic squeeze for cinematic widescreen

Compact anamorphic lens for Super35 cameras

The Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 (Amber) is a compact, lightweight anamorphic cine lens built for Super35 cinema cameras. It features a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze, which creates a true cinematic widescreen look. This Canon RF-mount version suits filmmakers who want an anamorphic aesthetic on RF-equipped camera bodies.

Optical characteristics and aperture

The lens offers a bright T2.4 aperture, so you can work in lower light while controlling depth of field. Precision-engineered anamorphic optics deliver sharp details, minimal focus breathing, and smooth focus transitions. Moreover, the 13-blade iris produces shallow depth of field and soft, cinematic bokeh that helps separate the subject from the background.

Distinctive amber flare and bokeh

This specific version produces warm amber anamorphic flares. It yields rich golden streaks that add warmth and depth to footage. Additionally, the lens renders beautiful oval bokeh and elongated horizontal flares, preserving the classic anamorphic aesthetic while adding a naturalistic, organic tone.

Designed for versatile production rigs

The lens’s compact and lightweight design makes it suitable for handheld setups, gimbal work, and drone cinematography. Standard 0.8 mod geared rings on both focus and aperture allow seamless integration with professional follow-focus systems. Because the lens uses manual focus and aperture control, it gives filmmakers full creative control over their images.

Build and available flare options

The Laowa Nanomorph is built with durable all-metal construction for professional-grade reliability. Additionally, Laowa offers the Nanomorph series with blue, amber, and silver flare options, letting filmmakers choose the flare character that best fits their visual style. This listing is for the amber-flare variant.
