Laowa Nanomorph 27mm T2.8 1.5X S35 (Silver) – (Cine) Arri PL (Default) + EF

The Laowa Nanomorph 27mm T2.8 1.5x S35 Anamorphic Lens is a sleek, compact lens designed for high-definition video with a 1.5x anamorphic squeeze on S35 sensors. It features a 27mm focal length, a PL lens mount, and includes an EF-mount bayonet option. The lens offers an aperture range of T2.8 to T22 for a deep depth of field, with 13 iris blades providing a shallow depth of field and soft bokeh. Its short minimum focus distance of 16.9″ enhances versatility, while its anamorphic qualities include high contrast, silver colour lens flares, and a 70.8° horizontal field of view. Additional features consist of measurement markings in feet and meters, 0.8 MOD cine gears on the focus and aperture rings, and a 77mm front filter thread. The lens is equipped with an ARRI PL mount by default, with a Canon EF bayonet mount included for broad camera compatibility.

Constant 1.5x Squeeze Ratio

A 1.5x squeeze ratio is a perfect balance between the size and anamorphic intensity. With a 1.5x squeeze ratio, you will have a 2.66:1 on a 16:9 sensor after de-squeeze. There is also room for you to crop into a 2.4:1 widescreen ratio.

Artistic Oval Bokeh

A 1.5x squeeze ratio also renders oval bokeh that gives an artistic touch to the image. It also creates a blurry and creamy background that pops out the subject.

Silver Anamorphic Flare Colour

Compared to the more common blue flare, the silver flare is a neutral-coloured flare that provides more control over the flare colour. Its colour changes according to the light source, and it can be relatively subtler and less distracting.

Short Focus Distance

The 16.9″ close focus distance is short so users can create closer shots. It renders a shallower depth of field, so the sense of compression will be stronger and the bokeh will be more oval-shaped.

Unified Gear Position

The unified gear position allows users to switch lenses quickly and without readjustment on the focus gear.

77mm Filter Thread

A 77mm filter can be attached directly to the lens for a variety of handy setups. The small diameter is favorable when doing run-and-gun shots or utilising it with an aerial drone.

Dual Scales

Both imperial and metric scales are printed on the lens body.

0.8 MOD Gears

Industry-standard 0.8 MOD gears are installed on both the aperture and focus rings.

Flange Back Adjustment

The lens allows users to adjust the back focus easily.
