Overview
The Laowa Nanomorphs are the world’s smallest anamorphic lenses covering Super35 sensors, weighing less than 14 oz each. Their compact design opens up more possibilities for setups were standard anamorphic lenses would not work before (gimbals, helmets, drones, etc.)
With a 1.5x squeeze, you will have a 2.66:1 aspect ration on a 16:9 sensor after de-squeeze. Comparing to 1.33x anamorphic lens, Laowa Nanomorph delivers a much more pronounced anamorphic & cinematic look. The Nanomorphs offer the right amount of anamorphic squeeze for 16:9 senors. A 1.5x squeeze ratio also renders stretched oval bokeh which gives an artistic touch to the image.
3 Flares options are available, Amber, Blue & Silver. Anamorphic lenses with blue flares are very common in the market and they fit perfectly with a sci-fi and cooler vibe. The amber option delivers a warmer and passionate vibe suitable for narrative and day/night shots, while the neutral silver flare can be adapted to different colors according to the hue of the light source.
Anamorphic lenses tend to have longer closest focusing distance due to restriction of optical design. Nanomorph has one of the shortest close focusing distance among all anamorphic lenses in the market. Filmmakers can obtain a very close-up shots which renders much shallower depth of field and stronger bokeh. This offers a much higher flexibility in framing.
