Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph 20mm T2.2 1.5x C... Overview

The Micro Four Thirds-mount Laowa Nanomorph 20mm T2.2 1.5x MFT Anamorphic Lens from Venus Optics is a compact, lightweight anamorphic lens that captures high-quality, organic imagery with 1.5x anamorphic squeeze on cameras with MFT sensors. It features a wide view ideal for landscapes, an aperture range of T2.2 to T16 for a deep depth of field, and multiple iris blades for soft bokeh.

This prime lens has a short minimum focus distance of 16.9" and offers anamorphic qualities such as oval bokeh, shallower depth of field, and silver color lens flares. Other features include focus marks in both feet and meters, 0.8 MOD cine gears on focus and aperture rings, and a 55mm front filter thread.

Constant 1.5x Squeeze Ratio

A 1.5x squeeze ratio is a perfect balance between the size and anamorphic intensity. With a 1.5x squeeze ratio, you will have a 2.66:1 on a 16:9 sensor after de-squeeze.

Compact Design

This compact and lightweight lens measures just 3.3" in length and weighs less than 11 oz, enabling you to use it for handheld, slider, and gimbal capture.

Artistic Oval Bokeh

A 1.5x squeeze ratio also renders an oval bokeh that gives an artistic touch to the image. It also creates a blurry and creamy background that pops out the subject.

Widescreen Look

This 20mm telephoto focal length provides a wider perspective that is ideal for capturing landscapes, buildings, and more.

Silver Anamorphic Flare

The silver flare creates a more neutral look that can be adjusted according to the color of the light source for greater versatility.

T2.2 Aperture, Close Focus

The 16.9" minimum focus distance enables users to create closer shots. The T2.2 maximum aperture renders a shallower depth of field, creating a stronger sense of compression and oval-shaped bokeh.

Unified Gear Position

The unified gear position allows users to switch lenses quickly and without readjustment on the focus gear.

55mm Filter Thread

A 55mm filter can be attached directly to the lens for a variety of handy setups, including handheld, drone, and gimbal shots.

Dual Focus Scales

Focus marks are provided in both feet and meters.

0.8 MOD Gears

Industry-standard 0.8 MOD gears are installed on both aperture and focus rings.
