Sony MANTIS Blazar 100mm
The 1.33x anamorphic squeeze on this full-frame 100mm prime delivers a wide 2:1 aspect ratio with signature oval bokeh from its 14-blade iris. Its T2.4 aperture and amber lens flare produce pronounced cinematic character and depth without digital manipulation. This lens is best for narrative filmmakers and music video directors seeking vintage, widescreen aesthetics on Sony E-mount cameras.
