Lens Overview — Venus Optics S35 Anamorphic Prime 5-Lens Set

The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph S35 Anamorphic Prime 5-Lens Set in Sony E mount brings together five anamorphic prime lenses designed specifically for Super 35 sensor cameras. The set covers a focal length range from 27mm to 80mm, giving cinematographers a practical spread of standard-range primes suited to a wide variety of shooting scenarios. Each lens in the set shares a common filter thread size of 55mm, which simplifies the use of shared filter systems across the entire kit — a practical workflow advantage on set.

The maximum aperture across the set is f/2.4, delivering solid low-light capability while maintaining consistent exposure characteristics from lens to lens. All five lenses are manual focus only, with no autofocus and no image stabilization, reflecting the deliberate, hands-on control that cinema and video shooters typically prefer. The lenses are classified under the Cinema and Video camera system and are built around the Sony E mount, making them compatible with Super 35 Sony E-mount cameras.

The combined weight of the full set is 2,007g. With a lens type designated as Anamorphic and a format coverage of Super 35, this set is purpose-built for filmmakers seeking a cohesive, matched anamorphic look across a range of focal lengths.

Key Features — Venus Optics S35 Anamorphic Prime 5-Lens Set
