Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 1.5X Anamorphic S35 (Blue) PL + EF

Laowa Nanomorph 65 mm T2.4 1.5X Anamorphic S35 (Blue) PL + EF brings a full-scale cinematic image to rigs where weight is critical. Covering Super 35+ sensors (28.8 × 18 mm), its patented front block maintains a constant 1.5× squeeze, delivering 2.66:1 on a 16:9 sensor without “mumps” from 0.70 m to ∞. The 65 mm focal length supplies flattering telephoto compression for dialogue and beauty shots.

Inside, 15 elements in 13 groups keep corner acuity high while giving the hallmarks professionals want: oval bokeh from a 13-blade iris, smooth fall-off and the signature blue horizontal flare. The fast T2.4 stop copes with low-key interiors and closes steplessly to T16 over 78.6 °. Angle of view on S35 is 36.8 ° × 15.8 °; de-squeezed it widens to 55.2 °. Focus breathing is minimal, and nano-coatings curb chromatic shift so HDR grading stays clean. The lens even covers select full-frame modes such as 4.6 K Open Gate on ARRI Alexa 35 with gentle edge roll-off.

Mechanics are fully cine-oriented. Focus turns 270 ° and iris 78.6 °, both with 0.8 MOD gears aligned to the Nanomorph set, so motors need no repositioning. Uniform gear spacing lets matte boxes, rods and RF motors stay locked, slashing swap time on multi-lens days. Minimum focus of 70 cm removes diopters. A 77 mm front thread and 80 mm outer diameter suit clip-on matte boxes, while dual metric/imperial scales speed pulling. The anodised alloy body is 97.8 mm long and 820 g, yet houses a swappable PL or EF mount and a 3/8”-16 support foot.

Pair the lens with the 1.33× adapter for a dramatic 2× squeeze, or use it natively to bring a crisp anamorphic language to episodic TV, live multicam or streaming commercials. Compact enough for drones, robust enough for cinema, Nanomorph 65 mm T2.4 is the quickest route to a true widescreen look on Super 35 productions.
