The Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5X S35 is the world's smallest anamorphic lens designed for Super35 sensors. Weighing less than 390g, this lens revolutionizes handheld and aerial cinematography, making it the perfect choice for gimbals, drones, and helmet rigs where weight is a critical factor.
Cinematic 1.5x Squeeze Ratio
Unlike many compact lenses that use a 1.33x squeeze, the Nanomorph features a 1.5x squeeze ratio. This provides a significantly more pronounced anamorphic look with oval bokeh and compressed backgrounds while remaining mumps-free. The 1.5x ratio is ideal for 16:9 sensors, resulting in a cinematic 2.66:1 aspect ratio after de-squeezing.
Distinctive Blue Flare and Close Focus
This specific model features the Blue flare option, delivering that classic, sci-fi inspired horizontal streak. With a relatively close focusing distance, creators gain more flexibility in composition and can achieve a shallower depth of field for intimate character shots.
The Laowa Nanomorph S35 Bundle for Nikon Z offers three ultra-compact 1.5x anamorphic lenses (27/35/50mm) with a classic blue flare for cinematic video.
