Unique shots thanks to the Viltrox lens in the"Land of Fire & Ice"

Einzigartige Aufnahmen dank des Viltrox-Objektivs im "Land of Fire & Ice"

Daniel Arnzen was drawn to the northernmost island in Europe because of the impressive landscape. From his point of view, Iceland offers the perfect backdrop for spectacular landscape photography! He mainly deals with wedding and couple photography, which is why he and his models set off to Iceland to fulfill his long-awaited dream. Here he was able to perfectly combine the two topics of landscape photography and wedding and couple photography.

Daniel had been looking for a bright one for a long time 85 millimeter lensto make the special one Look of portraits capture and make it easier to focus on the people. With his Nikon Z6ii and the new one Viltrox lens, which he was able to test in collaboration with us, the photographer said he had found a serious alternative to the original Nikon lens in terms of price and functionality.”.

The advantages of the 85 millimeter lens for Arnzen

The Viltrox lens owns one Metal case, which has a high quality and robust impression conveyed, says Arnzen. The focus ring can be easily adjusted manually and the Autofocus was convincing him straight away. The STM autofocus works quickly, precisely and reliably, which is extremely important on turbulent shoots. Due to the windy conditions and moving subjects, it was essential for him to be able to automatically set a sharp focus. Even at the smallest aperture, the lens delivered one impressive sharpness. Also the Bokeh effect impressed the photographer with its harmonious progressions, as can be clearly seen in the following landscape images.

A moment of togetherness in front of an atmospheric waterfall

The first shooting spot was this Helgufoss waterfall near Reykjavik. This insider tip has not yet spread among tourists, which is why it is a perfect backdrop for one Couple shoot offered. The contrast of the light ceiling and water to the dark surroundings created a mystical overall picture. Arnzen worked with an aperture of F/2.2 and an exposure time of 1/400, which allowed enough daylight to enter without an additional light source stunning photo to achieve.

Splash of color on the beach

Next we went to Reynisfjara beach, in the south of the island, which is very popular with tourists. This is due, among other things, to the special black sand beach. This was also the ideal basis for what followed Photographer's setup.

The rough and windy conditions on the beach made it difficult for the photographer to take photos. The long dress was difficult to tame and had to be held by Daniel. So he only had one hand on the camera. But even under these conditions he succeeded sharp images, thanks to the strong autofocus. He worked with a low ISO and a small aperture.

Wanderlust and boho vibes

Outfit and location change: white wedding dress and black country road. Daniel's practiced eye immediately recognized the contrast that he wanted to capture directly. This is what happened when he selected his last one Shooting location on the road with little traffic for a spontaneous shoot, in which the mountain backdrop in the background is a perfect example of this Combination of wedding and landscape photography represents.

…dass hier nicht ein Bild mit 1.8er Blende hochgeladen ist, spricht nicht gerade für die Linse…
