Laowa Nanomorph 50 mm T2.4 1.5× Anamorphic S35 (Amber) PL + EF distils flagship anamorphic imaging into an 84 × 75 mm barrel weighing just 550 g. A constant 1.5× squeeze ratio produces native 2.66 : 1 on 16 : 9 Super 35 sensors, preserving every pixel while unfurling classic oval bokeh. The front-anamorphic block keeps the ratio unchanged from 70 cm to infinity, eliminating “mumps” and ensuring perfect geometry on drones, gimbals or shoulder rigs.
Inside, 15 elements in 13 groups deliver high contrast and tight chromatic control. The fast T2.4 iris with 13 bladesisolates talent with creamy backgrounds yet stops cleanly to T16 for controlled depth. A horizontal field of view of 42 °slots neatly into mid-shot storytelling, while the warm amber flare option brushes golden streaks across highlights that grade effortlessly.
Every ring carries 0.8 MOD gears in identical positions to other Nanomorph focal lengths, speeding lens swaps on matte-box-ready rigs. Dual metric/imperial scales aid precise pulls, and an integrated flange-back adjuster lets you recalibrate on set without shims. The front accepts standard 77 mm filters, avoiding bulky clamp-ons for ND or diopters.
Shipping in ARRI PL with a user-replaceable Canon EF bayonet, the Nanomorph mates flawlessly with Alexa Mini, RED Komodo, URSA Mini Pro or EOS C-series bodies. Covering a 25.6 mm image circle and offering a 270 ° focus rotation, it brings large-format-style separation to Super 35 productions while keeping rigs compact—ideal for narrative, broadcast or multicam live environments where every gram and pixel count.
