LAOWA NANOMORPH 1.5x SILVER ANAMORPHIC

The Laowa Nanomorphs are another incredibly reliable and easy to use anamorphic set. These are the lightest anamorphic set, making them easy to use on any form of handheld work. They are also pretty fast, with most of the set have a T stop of 2.4.

One thing stressed about this set is that there are no anamorphic mumps, ensuring a constant squeeze ration no matter what. Our set of nanomorphs is the silver flare set which turns highlights into a silver streak. Additionally, the Nanomorphs have some of the best close focus capabilities out of most anamorphic lenses. With all of the minimum close focus marks below 3’. This only expands the possibilities for how you can use them.

What is an Anamorphic lens?

There are two main types of lenses; those being spherical and those being anamorphic. Anamorphic lenses have asymmetrical optical curves that render more compressed images in its width and is stretched more in its height. This compression and stretching is determined by the squeeze factor. An anamorphic lens with a 2x squeeze factor will be two times as wide as the focal length on the respective lens. (Meaning a 50mm would have the field of view of a 25, but the depth of focus as a 50mm). However there are many different squeeze factors: 1.5x, 2x, 1.3x, 1.8x etc.
