Priced at US$1,999, this affordable lens greatly enhances creative possibilities in productions and offers a fresh approach to storytelling.
Innovative 0.5X Macro Capability
The Nanomorph 60mm Macro lens offers cinematographers the unique ability to create visuals with a 1:2 magnification ratio and a 1.5x squeezed anamorphic image. This feature is not commonly found in either modern or vintage lenses. The lens also boasts a 270° focus throw, allowing cinematographers and focus pullers to achieve precise focus control when transitioning between 0.1x and 0.5x magnification. This makes it perfect for guiding the audience's attention to the fine details on screen.
With a short closest focusing distance of 24cm / 9.45”, filmmakers can get up close to their subjects and capture intricate details at ease.
T2.9 Large Aperture
The Nanomorph 60mm Macro lens features a wide T2.9 aperture, enabling cinematographers to achieve a smooth and organic oval bokeh with a shallow depth of field.
This lens also enhances low-light shooting performance, allowing for clear and sharp images even when shooting wide open.
1.5X Constant Squeeze Ratio
This 60mm macro anamorphic lens offers mumps-free characteristics along with excellent optical performance.
Cinematic Flare with Amber/Blue/Silver Color Options
The Nanomorph 60mm Macro lens comes in 3 cinematic flare options, including amber, blue, and silver. The blue flare is ideal for achieving a sci-fi or vintage look, while the amber and silver flares offer warmer and more neutral tones. The silver flare option allows filmmakers to adjust the flare color according to the light source, providing versatility and making it a popular artistic choice for cinematographers to use in music videos and feature films.
Compatible with Laowa 1.4x Full-Frame Expander
The Nanomorph 60mm Macro lens can be paired with the Laowa 1.4x Full-Frame Expander to convert it into an 84mm T4 Full Frame 1:2 Macro Anamorphic Lens. This combination allows filmmakers to maintain the same closest focusing distance for capturing expressive macro anamorphic shots. It is ideal for use with full-frame cameras such as the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K, PYXIS, and the Sony FX6, enabling cinematographers to explore creative possibilities in their visual storytelling.
Ergonomic & Intelligent Cine Housing
