Lens Overview — Venus Optics 65mm T2.4 S35

The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 65mm T2.4 is an anamorphic prime lens built for Super 35 cinema cameras, available here in the PL Mount configuration. Designed specifically for the cinema and video camera system, this lens targets filmmakers who want anamorphic character in a compact, manageable form factor. At 65mm on a Super 35 sensor, it sits comfortably in the standard focal length range, making it a versatile choice for portraiture, dialogue scenes, and general narrative work.

The maximum aperture of T2.4 provides solid low-light capability while keeping the lens size and weight practical for handheld and gimbal-based shooting. Weighing in at just 520g, the Nanomorph 65mm is notably lightweight for an anamorphic prime, which is a genuine advantage on long shooting days or when rigging onto smaller cinema cameras and gimbals. Focus is entirely manual, which is standard practice in professional cinema production and allows for precise, repeatable focus pulls.

The 62mm front filter thread adds flexibility for attaching filtration without adapters. This is a purpose-built tool for Super 35 productions seeking anamorphic aesthetics in a lightweight PL-mount package.
