The Laowa Proteus 2x Anamorphic 60mm T2 Lens by Venus Optics is a sophisticated tool designed for filmmakers seeking a classic cinema-style anamorphic look with modern versatility. Ideal for cameras with S35+ sensors like the ALEXA 35 and RED V-RAPTOR, this lens boasts a 2x anamorphic squeeze, delivering an ultra-widescreen cinematic experience. Constructed with a focal length of 60mm and featuring interchangeable PL and EF mounts, the lens supports creative flexibility. A fast T2 aperture facilitates shooting in low-light conditions while rendering a shallow depth of field with enticing bokeh. The lens also offers impressive sharpness and contrast, even wide open, meeting the high demands of film production. The Proteus lens stands out with an innovative silver color lens flare, a minimum focusing distance of 27.6 inches for crisp close-up shots, and both focus and aperture rings equipped with industry-standard 0.8 MOD gears. An optional 1.4x full-frame expander broadens its compatibility, maintaining sharpness and quality on full-frame sensors.
