Sony MANTIS Blazar 25mm

18.2 Street Score
25mm T22 Sony E
Why we recommend this ▼

A fast T2.0 aperture and 1.33x anamorphic squeeze deliver a wide field of view with the signature oval bokeh from its 14-blade iris on full-frame sensors. The 180-degree focus throw and consistent 80mm front diameter across the set streamline matte box use, while the interchangeable mount system offers broad camera compatibility. This manual-focus prime is best for controlled-set cinematographers building a cohesive anamorphic look for narrative or music video work.
