Product highlights and buying context
Lightweight and compact, the Laowa Proteus 45-85mm T2.9 2x S35 Anamorphic Zoom from Venus Optics covers Super 35 sensors and is ideal for handheld, stabilizer use, and fast setups. Combined with the separately available Proteus 26-45mm zoom, the two lenses provide a wide, versatile 26-85mm range and a 3.27x zoom ratio.
The Proteus 45-85mm lens measures just 7.6" in length and weighs around 3.3 lb, providing a compact, portable form that makes it the lightest of available front anamorphic zooms.
A 31.9mm image circle enables the Proteus 45-85mm zoom to cover a variety of Super 35 camera sensors, including ARRI ALEXA 35 Open Gate and RED V-RAPTOR 7K 6:5 formats.
The Proteus zoom series maintains a T2.9 maximum aperture across the entire zoom range, ensuring optimal exposure and impressive sharpness, even in challenging lighting conditions.
The Proteus zoom lenses offer superior optical performance without distracting color fringing, even when shooting at the maximum T2.9 aperture.
The 2x squeeze ratio renders an oval bokeh that gives an artistic touch, and the organic focus roll-off creates an appealing cinematic look.
This Proteus zoom includes a native ARRI PL mount that can be swapped out with the included Canon EF mount and separately available interchangeable Canon RF, Nikon Z, Sony E, and L mounts.
Use this Proteus zoom with the separately available 1.4x expander to cover full-frame sensor cameras without any noticeable effect in resolution.
Use the front thread to attach a 77mm filter directly to the lens, saving the weight of a matte box on your camera rig.
Industry-standard 0.8 MOD gears are installed on the focus, iris, and zoom rings.
Focus marks are marked on the lens body in feet.
