After extensive collaboration with cinematographers, the Laowa Proteus 60mm T2 2x Anamorphic Cine Lens for PL Mount/Canon EF, Blue, Meter, has been meticulously designed to deliver superior image quality and classic anamorphic characteristics. This lens is part of the Proteus series, Laowa's latest and most accessible professional anamorphic series for Super 35 sensors, offering a constant 2X squeeze ratio across all four focal lengths.

The Laowa Proteus 60mm T2 lens features a universal T2 aperture, ensuring excellent image quality in various lighting conditions. Its unique design allows for elliptical bokeh and signature flares, available in blue, amber, and silver options, adding a distinctive touch to your cinematic production.

This lens boasts a patented front anamorphic design, ensuring robust optical composition while maintaining the vintage appeal of anamorphic characteristics. The constant 2X squeeze ratio is delicately designed to exemplify the classic wide-screen anamorphic look, working comfortably with 4:3 or 6:5 sensors to deliver a 2.66:1 or 2.4:1 image after de-squeeze.

The Laowa Proteus 60mm T2 lens offers a large aperture range from T2 to T22, supporting filming in all light conditions and satisfying dynamic on-set needs.

With a minimum focusing distance of 55cm (1.8 feet), this lens allows for super close-up shots, adding variety to your framing and storytelling. The close-up shots generate a shallower depth of field, adding aesthetic and cinematic vibes to your frame.

The Proteus series lenses are designed with a unified gear position, allowing for quick switching between focal lengths. They also feature a back focus adjustment mechanism for direct calibration with the lens mounted on the camera, and a 0.8 Mod Gear for both aperture and focus gear to work with the pitching.

The Laowa Proteus 60mm T2 lens has a 300-degree focus throw, supporting a finer and more accurate degree of change in focal distance. It also has a 114mm outer diameter and 105mm filter thread, designed to accommodate common matte box or filters. With a super 35+ sensor coverage and compatibility with some full-frame cameras and most Super 35 cameras, this lens is a versatile addition to any filmmaker's toolkit.
