The BLAZAR MANTIS 35mm T2.0 1.33X Full Frame Anamorphic Lens is a professional PL-mount cinema lens designed to deliver a classic anamorphic look in a compact, lightweight form. Featuring a 1.33X anamorphic squeeze, fast T2.0 aperture, signature amber flares, and beautiful oval bokeh, it produces cinematic widescreen imagery with full-frame coverage, making it ideal for feature films, commercials, music videos, and high-end productions.
The BLAZAR MANTIS 35mm T2.0 1.33X Full Frame Anamorphic Lens combines the timeless aesthetics of classic anamorphic cinema with the convenience of a lightweight, modern design. Engineered for professional filmmakers, this lens delivers a cinematic widescreen image featuring signature oval bokeh, subtle barrel distortion, and warm amber flares that add depth and character to every frame.
Built around Blazar's advanced 1.33X anamorphic optical design, the Mantis series recreates the visual style of traditional 2X anamorphic lenses while remaining easier to integrate into modern full-frame workflows. When paired with a 36 × 24 mm full-frame sensor, it produces an impressive 2:1 cinematic aspect ratio, making it ideal for narrative filmmaking, commercials, documentaries, and music videos.
The fast T2.0 aperture delivers excellent low-light performance while producing smooth focus fall-off and outstanding subject separation. A 14-blade iris diaphragm creates beautifully rounded oval bokeh, enhancing the signature anamorphic look that cinematographers seek.
The lens features an impressive 0.48 m (1.57 ft) close focusing distance, allowing filmmakers to capture detailed close-up shots without sacrificing the classic anamorphic rendering. With a smooth 180° focus rotation, standardized 80 mm front diameter, and 77 mm filter thread, the Mantis 35mm integrates seamlessly into professional cinema workflows.
Weighing just 792 g, the Mantis 35mm is well suited for handheld operation, gimbals, drones, and fast-paced productions where lightweight equipment is essential without compromising cinematic image quality.
