Description — Laowa 35mm 1.5x S35
The Laowa Nanomorph 35mm Anamorphic Lens with DJI DL Mount is a prime lens built for Super 35 cinema and video production. It features a maximum aperture of T2.4, making it capable in lower-light shooting environments while keeping the overall lens design compact. Weighing just 390g, it is an exceptionally lightweight option for an anamorphic cinema prime, integrating smoothly into weight-sensitive setups including gimbals and aerial rigs.
The 67mm filter thread makes it straightforward to attach industry-standard screw-in filters. Focusing is entirely manual, placing creative control directly in the operator's hands for precise cinematic pulls. The lens carries no image stabilization, so stabilization responsibilities fall to the camera platform or external rig.
The DJI DL mount designation ensures a dedicated, purpose-built fit for compatible DJI cinema camera systems, and the lens is categorized within the Cinema / Video camera system, reflecting its intended professional production use.
