The anamorphic system allows videographers to obtain widescreen images from a standard recording medium, giving footage a more cinematic look: resulting in an image ratio of 2.4:1 on a 16:9 sensor.
The alternative way to obtain this ratio is to crop the image losing pixels.
Anamorphic optics give the image characteristics such as side flare and oval bokeh.
They are always used on large budget films.
The Laowa Nanomorph series is designed for Super35 and M43 sensors.
Anamorphic lenses are defined as "Nano" as they are extremely small and light, while "Morph" stands for anamorphic.
The range includes 5 focal lengths: 27mm T2.8, 35mm T2.4, 50mm T2.4, 65mm T2.4 and 80mm T2.4.
The anamorphic design has a ratio of 1.5X across the entire focus range.
Three versions of each lens are available, which are characterized by the different color of the flare - amber, blue and silver - suitable for different cinematographic genres or the preferences of cinematographers and operators. The minimum focusing distance allows for an accentuated oval bokeh and creates a greater sense of space compression.
Available in different mounts: Canon EF/Arri PL, Canon R, Sony E, M43, DJI DL, Nikon Z, L mount and Fuji
The EF/PL version is supplied with the PL bayonet mounted and with the EF bayonet included in the package.
