Overview
The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 65 & 80mm Anamorphic Primes are compact, lightweight S35 lenses delivering a consistent 1.5× anamorphic squeeze with amber color flare and cinematic oval bokeh. Both primes feature telephoto compression ideal for close-ups, an aperture range of T2.4 to T16, and 13-blade irises for soft, organic rendering.
Designed for handheld, slider, gimbal, car-rig, and run-and-gun work, each lens includes dual focus scales (feet and meters), industry-standard 0.8 MOD cine gears, a unified gear position for quick swaps, and a 62 mm front filter thread. Optional 1.33× front adapters can be used to obtain a 2× squeeze ratio.
