The Laowa Nanomorph Zoom 50-100mm T2.9 1.5X S35 Lens is designed for professional cinematographers and videographers working on S35 sensor cameras who require a versatile, compact anamorphic solution. The primary benefit is its constant 1.5x squeeze ratio and T2.9 aperture, which provides an authentic cinematic look with excellent low-light capabilities in a portable form factor. One notable caveat is that its specialized anamorphic design requires a specific lens mount ecosystem (PL) and may require additional adapter support depending on your specific camera body.

It is designed for S35 sensors. It will vignette on most Full-Frame sensors unless the camera is used in a specific crop mode.
The 1.5x squeeze compresses the image horizontally, which is then 'un-squeezed' in post-production to create a wide, cinematic aspect ratio.
Yes, provided you use a high-quality PL-to-Mirrorless adapter that maintains focus distances.
Yes, it includes industry-standard geared rings for zoom and focus, making it compatible with most follow-focus systems.
Parfocal means the lens maintains perfect focus throughout the entire zoom range, meaning you do not have to re-focus when zooming in or out.
The silver flare is a physical property of the lens elements; it cannot be removed, but it can be minimized by using a matte box or flag to block direct stray light.
Ensure your camera sensor is set to S35/APS-C mode rather than Full-Frame mode.
Check that the back-focus calibration on your camera or PL adapter is correctly shimmed.
Check the PL mount locking ring tension and ensure the lens is fully seated before tightening.
To begin using the Nanomorph 50-100mm, ensure your PL mount is clean and properly seated on the camera body. Since this is an S35 lens, verify that your camera is set to S35 crop mode or APS-C mode to avoid heavy vignetting on full-frame sensors. When mounting, always engage the locking mechanism firmly to prevent accidental movement. For maintenance, use a lens blower to remove dust from the front and rear elements. Use a dedicated optical cleaning solution and a micro-fiber cloth for smudges, being careful not to touch the internal glass. Always store the lens in a dry, dust-free environment with the lens caps secured when not in use.
