Built for performance, each lens features a fast T2.0 aperture and a 14-blade iris for low-light capability and refined control over depth of field. Close focus distances of 1.6′ (35mm & 50mm) and 2.2′ (75mm) enhance compositional flexibility for everything from wide establishing shots to intimate close-ups. Whether you’re capturing atmospheric environments or isolating your subject with immersive foreground blur, the MANTIS lenses deliver consistently cinematic results across the entire focal range.

Unified Design, Broad Compatibility

The set comes natively in ARRI PL mount, with support for interchangeable mounts (Sony E, Canon EF/RF, FUJIFILM X, Nikon Z, Leica L) sold separately, providing filmmakers the adaptability needed for multiple camera systems. Each lens maintains a uniform 80mm front diameter and 77mm filter thread for seamless matte box use and faster lens swaps on set. Precision mechanics include a consistent 180° focus throw and smooth aperture ring rotation—73.4° for the 35mm, 66.9° for the 50mm, and 57° for the 75mm—ensuring a familiar handling experience regardless of focal length.

Engineered with lightweight, durable materials, each lens weighs just 1.7 lb, making the entire set an excellent choice for handheld or gimbal-based cinematography. The compact build pairs with professional cine-style ergonomics to support both agile run-and-gun shooting and more controlled studio environments. With their ability to deliver authentic anamorphic visuals in a refined, user-friendly form, the MANTIS lenses empower creators to tell bold visual stories without compromise.
