The Laowa Proteus Zoom 2X Anamorphic 45-85mm T2.9 lens delivers unparalleled flexibility in telephoto anamorphic cinematography. Ideal for filmmakers seeking professional-grade optics combined with the convenience of a versatile zoom, this lens excels at cinematic portraits, detailed close-ups, and medium telephoto framing with an authentic anamorphic character.
With its true 2X squeeze ratio, the lens captures immersive widescreen visuals, stunning oval-shaped bokeh, and richly cinematic horizontal flares. Its constant T2.9 aperture ensures superior low-light performance and refined depth-of-field control throughout the entire zoom range, allowing filmmakers to create dramatic scenes even under challenging lighting conditions.
Precision-engineered optics maintain sharpness, contrast, and accurate color rendering across all focal lengths, while meticulous lens coatings help minimize distortion and unwanted reflections. The lens is available with interchangeable amber, blue, or silver flare modules, allowing filmmakers to quickly adapt the visual aesthetic to fit their desired creative style.
Designed for professional use, the Proteus Zoom 45-85mm lens features rugged all-metal construction, smooth manual focus and aperture control rings, and industry-standard 0.8 MOD cine gears for seamless integration with follow-focus systems. Standardized with a robust PL mount, the lens also includes an interchangeable Canon EF bayonet for greater compatibility.
