Cinematic Anamorphic Lens
The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 50mm T2.4 1.5x S35 Anamorphic Micro Four Thirds Silver Flare is a compact cinema lens built for Super 35 and Micro Four Thirds sensors. Its 1.5x constant squeeze produces a 2.66:1 widescreen ratio after de-squeeze. Weighing 13.75 oz (390g) and measuring 2.36 x 3.78" (60 x 96mm), it suits gimbal, drone and handheld work. The silver flare variant adds distinctive highlight character.
Mount and Sensor Compatibility
Verify your camera uses a Micro Four Thirds mount before ordering. The lens covers Super 35 format and exceeds standard S35 coverage, allowing use on select full-frame bodies like the Sony A7S III in 4K 16:9 mode with minimal vignetting. It is a manual focus lens with no electronic contacts, so confirm your workflow supports fully manual aperture and focus operation.
Thermals, Noise and Power
Passive optical construction means no internal motors, fans or electronics to generate heat or noise during operation. The all-metal barrel dissipates ambient temperature naturally without active cooling. Power draw is zero because the lens requires no battery or camera communication. Silent performance suits sound-sensitive environments and long takes without thermal throttling concerns.
