This Laowa Nanomorph 27mm T2.8 1.5x S35 Anamorphic Lens from Venus Optics is a slender, compact anamorphic lens that captures high-definition video with 1.5x anamorphic squeeze on cameras with S35 sensors. It features a focal length of 27mm, a Micro Four Thirds lens mount, an aperture range of T2.8 to T22 for a deep depth of field, and 13 iris blades for a shallow depth of field and soft bokeh.

The prime lens has a very short minimum focus distance of 16.9" and offers anamorphic qualities such as high contrast, amber color lens flares, and a 70.8° horizontal field of view. Other features include measurement markings in feet and meters, 0.8 MOD cine gears on focus and aperture rings, and a 55mm front filter thread. The Micro Four Thirds lens mount is interchangeable and can be swapped out for an optional mount.

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. There is also room for you to crop into a 2.4:1 widescreen ratio.

Q: 3. Will the EF version work if I use an EF to Sony E mount adapter on my A7s3?

A: Although, an EF to E-mount adapter would work for mounting the Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph S35 Prime 3-Lens Bundle (ARRI PL & Canon EF, Silver Flare), when equipped with their EF mounts, to a Sony A7S III, these lenses are Super 35mm sensors and for using with the A7S III, you would need to crop the sensor to a 1080p mode to avoid vignetting.

Q: 4. When use with a full frame like the R5C, do we still benefit from the full size of the sensor or do we need to crop in ?

A: The Venus Optics Laowa Nanomorph S35 Prime 3-Lens Bundle could work if the R5C is set to S35 cropped sensor mode. The lenses would not work when the sensor is in full frame mode.

Q: 8. Is it possible to mount a Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x onto a Canon R5c, then mount these lenses with an EF mount to make these lenses full frame?

A: No, the Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x (BH #CAMAEFRF71X • MFR #4757C001) is designed to adapt Full-Frame lenses to a Super 35 body. These are Super 35 lenses and the R5C is a Full-Frame body, so you're in the opposite situation. We would recommend buying Full-Frame lenses for the R5C.
