As the world's smallest anamorphic lens designed to cover Super35 sensors, this lightweight and compact lens weighs a mere 13.75 oz (390g) and measures only 3.78" (96mm) in length.

With the Laowa Nanomorph, you can achieve the same oval bokeh, horizontal flares, and shallower depth of field, adding a cinematic and artistic touch to your film.Despite its compact size, this lens offers Super35 coverage, specifically designed for Super35 (APS-C) & Micro Four Thirds sensors. However, its larger than S35 coverage allows it to be used on Full Frame cameras like Sony A7siii 4K 16:9 with only mild vignetting.The blue flare option is a common feature in anamorphic lenses, perfect for creating a sci-fi and cooler vibe. However, it's not always ideal for human skin tones. With a 1.5x squeeze, you can achieve a 2.66:1 on a 16:9 sensor after de-squeeze, delivering a more pronounced anamorphic and cinematic look compared to a 1.33x anamorphic lens.The Laowa Nanomorph also boasts a short focusing distance, a unique feature among anamorphic lenses. This allows filmmakers to capture very close-up shots, rendering a shallower depth of field and stronger bokeh, offering greater flexibility in framing.The lens also features a new patented anamorphic structure, ensuring a constant squeeze ratio at all focusing distances. This eliminates the issue of anamorphic mumps, a common problem in cheaper anamorphic lenses. The unified gear position allows for quick lens switching without readjustment on the focus gear, while the 55mm filter thread accommodates screw-in filters for handy setups.With industry-standard 0.8 mod gear installed on both aperture and focus rings, and the ability to fine-tune the back focus quickly with a 0.9mm hex key, this lens ensures accuracy and alignment even after changing cameras. The lens body also features both imperial and metric scales for added convenience. In summary, the Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5x S35 Anamorphic Lens for Fuji X, Blue Flare, offers a unique blend of compactness, versatility, and cinematic quality, making it a valuable addition to any filmmaker's toolkit.
