With a 1.33x squeeze, the Mantis are optimized for a wide range of sensor formats. Blazar’s innovative design delivers the rich visual character of a 2x anamorphic image. Expect cinematic depth, enhanced composition, and signature oval bokeh in every shot.
Oval Aperture
Equipped with a consistent oval-shaped aperture, the Mantis lens is designed to replicate the timeless aesthetics of a 2x anamorphic image, providing oval-shaped bokeh, enhanced depth, and cinematic character while utilizing a more accessible 1.33x squeeze.
Amber Flare
The Mantis lens produces a distinctive flare color that falls between neutral and amber, striking a perfect balance that enhances the image with a warm, cinematic glow. This carefully tuned flare adds character without overpowering the frame, giving scenes a subtle golden warmth that evokes emotion and elevates the overall visual tone.

Mantis lenses feature an impressive close focus capability, starting from just 1.25 feet (0.38 meters), allowing you to get up close without sacrificing that signature anamorphic character.
Interchangeable Mount
PL/EF/E/RF/L/Z/X MOUNT
The lens is offered in native PL or Sony E mount, with multiple adaptor options :
- Blazar's own adaptors to replace PL by E/EF/L/RF/Z/X mount (requires to unscrew the mount). See HERE.
