Lens Overview — Venus Optics 80mm T2.4 Anamorphic

The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 80mm T2.4 is a prime anamorphic lens built for the Canon RF mount, designed to bring a cinematic look to full-frame mirrorless cameras. Operating at a maximum aperture of T2.4, it offers solid light-gathering capability for a dedicated anamorphic prime, making it a practical choice for low-light filmmaking scenarios. The lens sits in the telephoto focal length range at a fixed 80mm, giving cinematographers a flattering perspective well-suited to portraits, close-ups, and medium shots.

Weighing just 490g, the Nanomorph lives up to its name as a genuinely compact anamorphic option — a format that often demands much heavier, bulkier glass. The 62mm front filter thread adds further versatility for those who want to use screw-on filtration in their workflow. Focus is entirely manual, which aligns with professional cinema practice and gives operators precise, deliberate control over focus pulls.

The lens is categorized under the Cinema and Video camera system, reflecting its primary purpose as a moving-image tool rather than a stills lens, though its Canon RF mount means it pairs directly with RF-mount camera bodies. There is no image stabilization, so a stable support system is recommended for handheld or gimbal use. Overall, the Nanomorph 80mm T2.4 represents a purposeful, lightweight anamorphic prime for Canon RF shooters pursuing a distinctive cinematic aesthetic.
