Laowa Proteus Zoom 2-Lens Bundle 26-45 mm & 45-85 mm T2.9 2× Anamorphic S35 (Silver) merges classic 2 × squeeze optics with modern precision over an unbroken 26–85 mm range. Both zooms hold a T2.9 aperture and 31.9 mm image circle, covering Super 35 and Open-Gate formats such as ALEXA 35 and V-RAPTOR 7 K while safeguarding edge-to-edge clarity. The neutral silver flare coating lets gaffers tune streak hue through light temperature, giving directors flexible visual grammar.
Optical blocks count 21 elements in 15 groups (26-45 mm) and 20 elements in 14 groups (45-85 mm); 11-blade irises carve oval bokeh and gentle focus roll-off. Parfocal mechanics pin focus through the 1.73 × / 1.89 × zoom sweeps, and breathing stays below 2 %. Rotation throws: focus 270 °, zoom 100 °, iris 42 °, each ring geared 0.8 MOD and sharing an 80 mm front diameter with a 77 mm filter thread—matte box or screw-in, your rig stays lean. Close focus drops to 0.50 m and 0.90 m, enabling tight Super 35 portraits with authentic anamorphic compression.
Native ARRI PL bayonet swaps to the included Canon EF with supplied shims; optional RF, L, Z or E interfaces plus the 1.4 × expander open full-frame capture. Internal multi-coating tames lateral CA, while colour uniformity guarantees seamless inter-cutting. Each lens weighs just 1.5 kg and measures 19 cm, ranking among the lightest front anamorphic zooms—perfect for gimbals, drones and shoulder rigs.
Whether crafting live broadcasts, episodic drama or commercial spots, the Proteus bundle delivers cinematic 2× anamorphic language, consistent optical behaviour and production-ready ergonomics—an efficient path to big-screen scope on Super 35 cameras. 1.5 kg mass holds centre-of-gravity on Steadicam; 3.27 × combined zoom range limits lens swaps. Identical gear positions let FIZ motors remain when swapping blocks.
