Laowa Proteus 2X Anamorphic 28mm T2 - Silver Edition

The Silver Edition of the Laowa Proteus 2X Anamorphic 28mm T2 Lens promises to deliver both contemporary sharpness and distinctive vintage anamorphic features such as elliptical bokeh and characteristic lens flare. Its composition is a unique blend of anamorphic and spherical groups.

With fixed anamorphic and spherical groups, the lens reaches its focus with an added variable spherical front glass—a feature similarly seen in Vantage Hawks, Cooke Anamorphic, and Atlas Orion lenses. Achieving an impressive 2X compression ratio, you will gain a 2.66:1 ratio on a 4:3 sensor and 2.4:1 on a 6:5 sensor upon decompression, allowing you to achieve that sought-after ultrawide cinematic look.

The Laowa Proteus guarantees a constant compression ratio across all focus distances to prevent anamorphic distortion. The lens has an impressive T2 aperture, which allows filmmakers to capture in low-light scenarios and create a shallow depth of field. All these features come together to offer a cinematic waterfall-like transition to unfocused areas.

  • Flare Colors: The Proteus variety comes in three diverse flare colors to suit different film genres - classic sci-fi blue, warm and elegant amber, and neutral silver. Depending on the light source, the flare of this silver version changes color.
  • Focus Distance: Achieve sharp close-up movie scenes with the ability to focus as close as 55 cm from the object.
  • Bokeh: The lens creates an elliptical bokeh within the out-of-focus area, a characteristic unique to anamorphic lenses, establishing a profound cinematic ambience. Bokeh in the 2X compression ratio appears noticeably thin and elongated.
