Cinematic 1.5x Anamorphic Lens
The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 delivers a classic widescreen look with a 1.5x squeeze ratio. It produces silver flares and oval bokeh on Super 35 sensors. The lens covers the Leica L mount with 15 elements in 13 groups. It weighs 390g and measures 96mm long.
Suited for Gimbal and Drone Work
Filmmakers needing the smallest anamorphic option for Super 35 will value the compact size and 13.75 oz weight. It fits gimbal rigs, sliders and drone platforms easily. Shooters requiring full-frame coverage without vignetting should look elsewhere. The T2.4 aperture supports low-light capture but is not the fastest available.
1.5x Squeeze Defines the Look
The 1.5x squeeze creates a 2.66:1 aspect ratio after de-squeeze on 16:9 sensors. This gives a more pronounced anamorphic character than 1.33x alternatives. The squeeze ratio also determines the oval bokeh shape and flare intensity. Buyers must match this ratio to their desired final framing.

Questions about this item
Will this 50mm 1.5x anamorphic cover the same Super 35 frame as my existing PL-mount primes?
Yes, the lens is optimised for Super 35 format with a 15-element, 13-group design that covers the full S35 image circle.
How can I confirm the 1.5x squeeze is producing the correct 2.66:1 widescreen look on my monitor?
Enable 1.5x de-squeeze in your monitor or NLE; the oval bokeh and horizontal flare streaks should appear circular and vertical respectively when the ratio is correct.
Does the box include a Leica L mount adapter or must I order one separately?
The lens ships with a native Leica L mount, front and rear caps, and a carrying pouch; no additional adapter is required for L-mount cameras.
