Be captivated by the Laowa Proteus T2 2x Anamorphic Cine Lens, a groundbreaking addition to the world of professional cinematography, designed specifically for Super 35 sensors. This lens series, available in eight distinct focal lengths, boasts a constant 2X squeeze ratio, ensuring a classic wide-screen anamorphic aesthetic that is perfect for cinematic storytelling. The universal T2 aperture across the series guarantees exceptional image quality, delivering the iconic anamorphic characteristics such as elliptical bokeh and signature flares in blue, amber, and silver options.The Laowa Proteus Series is engineered with a patented front anamorphic design, offering a robust optical composition that merges modern image sharpness with a vintage anamorphic look. This design supports seamless integration with 4:3 or 6:5 sensors, commonly found in professional cinema cameras, to produce stunning 2.66:1 or 2.4:1 images after de-squeeze. Filmmakers can also crop to a 2.39:1 aspect ratio with minimal resolution loss, thanks to the precision optical design that maintains the 2X squeeze ratio at any focus distance, avoiding anamorphic mumps.With an iris range from T2 to T22, the Proteus lenses are versatile enough to handle all lighting conditions, creating a ravishing shallow depth of field and organic waterfall focus roll-off that are highly sought after in the film industry. The series is fine-tuned for outstanding sharpness and color rendition, even when shooting wide open, with chromatic aberration well-controlled.Cinematographers will appreciate the close focusing capabilities, with a minimum focusing distance of 48cm for the 28mm lens and 99cm for the 100mm lens, allowing for super close-up shots that enhance storytelling with a cinematic vibe. The elliptical bokeh produced by the 2X anamorphic design is thinner and longer compared to 1.5X or 1.8X lenses, offering a more pronounced anamorphic look.Choose from amber, silver, or blue flare options to set the perfect tone for your film, with the silver flare adapting to the light source. The lenses exhibit low focus breathing, enabling filmmakers to shift focus between subjects smoothly, enhancing scene depiction.The Laowa Proteus Series supports Super 35+ sensor coverage, accommodating up to a 21.6mm sensor height, making it compatible with some full-frame cameras and most Super 35 cameras, including the latest Arri Alexa 35. Designed for ease of use, the series features a unified gear position for quick focal length changes, a back focus adjustment mechanism for direct calibration, and 0.8 mod gear for both aperture and focus. Select your preferred metric or imperial scale for the focus ring, and enjoy a 300-degree focus throw for precise focal adjustments. The package includes a lens support, a 114mm outer diameter, and a 105mm filter thread to accommodate common matte boxes or filters, all housed in a durable hard case.
