Beyond Full Frame coverage
The generous coverage circle (Ø 44.71 mm) reduces vignetting improving image quality and allowing optimal use of resolution, avoiding cropping, provides optimal coverage for the very popular ARRI Alexa LF 4.5K Open Gate (44.71 mm).
The 44.71mm coverage circle covers full-frame sensors in 16:9, 3:2 and 4:3 formats, allowing for easy output of 2:1, 2.25:1, 2.66:1 and 2.4:1 while maintaining image quality.

Constant 1.5x compression ratio
With a 1.5x compression ratio, the Laowa Nanomorph achieves a 2.66:1 aspect ratio on a 16:9 sensor after decompression, delivering a much more pronounced anamorphic and cinematic image than a 1.33x anamorphic lens.

Consistent bokeh from center to edges
Some anamorphic lenses change the shape of the bokeh from the center to the edges of the frame, sometimes taking on a "moon" appearance, which can be distracting.
In contrast, Nanomorph LF offers smoother bokeh across the entire frame.

Smooth transition from focus to out of focus
The aperture range extends from T2.9 to T22, allowing you to shoot
