The BLAZAR MANTIS 135mm T3.2 1.33X Full Frame Anamorphic Lens (PL Mount) is a professional cinema lens designed to deliver classic anamorphic visuals with modern optical precision. Featuring a 1.33X anamorphic squeeze, T3.2 to T22 aperture, and full-frame coverage, it produces cinematic widescreen imagery with signature amber flares, beautiful oval bokeh, and rich visual character. Built for professional filmmaking, its lightweight design and precise manual focus make it ideal for feature films, commercials, documentaries, and high-end video production.
The BLAZAR MANTIS 135mm T3.2 1.33X Full Frame Anamorphic Lens (PL Mount) is part of the acclaimed MANTIS series, engineered to provide the timeless aesthetics of traditional anamorphic cinematography in a compact and lightweight form. Designed for professional filmmakers, this lens combines a 1.33X anamorphic squeeze with refined optics to produce an image that closely resembles the cinematic character of classic 2X anamorphic lenses.
Optimized for 36 × 24 mm full-frame sensors, the MANTIS 135mm creates a 2:1 aspect ratio when paired with full-frame cameras while delivering a wider horizontal field of view, elegant oval bokeh, and the series' signature amber anamorphic flares. The carefully tuned flare color adds warmth and cinematic depth without overwhelming the image, making it suitable for feature films, commercials, music videos, and narrative productions.
With a T3.2 to T22 aperture range, the lens offers creative control over depth of field while maintaining impressive optical performance. The 14-blade iris diaphragm produces smooth, rounded out-of-focus highlights, enhancing the distinctive anamorphic look. A 180° focus rotation provides precise manual focus control, while the 1m (3.2 ft) minimum focusing distance allows for detailed telephoto compositions with beautiful subject isolation.
Despite its professional optical performance, the lens weighs only 800 g (1.74 lb), making it well suited for handheld shooting, gimbals, and modern lightweight cinema rigs. Featuring a standard 80 mm front diameter, 77 mm filter thread, and native PL mount, the MANTIS 135mm integrates seamlessly into professional cinema workflows.
