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. 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. 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.
