Kit Rental FAQ
What mounts does the Mantis kit work with?
The Mantis line uses interchangeable mounts in PL, E, EF, L, RF, and Z. Tell us your camera when you book and we will set the kit up for it.
Does the Mantis cover full frame?
Yes, natively. Every lens covers a 36x24mm full frame image circle, and the 1.33x squeeze desqueezes a 16:9 sensor to roughly 2.37:1 widescreen.
Which focal lengths ship in the kit?
The TSM kit is three Mantis 1.33x primes, 35, 50, and 75mm at T2.0. Every lens shares an 80mm front and 77mm filter thread, so your matte box and filters swap without re-rigging.
