Hi all. Off to Iceland in a week or two’s time and thinking about getting some filters for the M2Z. There was a previous thread but that was for M2P which has greater control of the camera settings.
Yep. Skyreat filters fitted fine. Don’t think the. M2 Zoom has a variable aperture. If it does, knock that down a bit (ie set to a higher number) so there’s less light coming in allowing for a longer exposure. But TBH you’re only going to get silky shots when up close to the waterfalls.
My best advice for Iceland is stay off the Golden Circle. There’s beauty all around in Iceland and you don’t want loads of tourists in your shots, let alone all the No Drones signs along the Golden Circle.
Check out my Iceland videos on my YT channel. Gives you an idea of where to go and what you can do off the beaten track.
Cheers
Many thanks for the input Ian. We’re flying to Akureyri on the north coast then going round from there down the east coast back to Reykjavik. Itinerary is fixed now and we’re a bit limited in where we can get to for health reasons, but from what I’ve seen we should get to a few spectacular places. I’ll check you out on YouTube!
When in Reykjavik, there is an excellent DJI shop on the main drag / dual carriddeway in the town centre a guy called Ziggy owns it, wot he don’t know ain’t worth knowing he also keeps loads of stock.
I got the Polar Pro filters ND8 facing the sun and got some fab shots, I have had others before for my MP but nothing matches these ND4 ,8,16 For the Zoom
It was a fluke shot not intended I just take random pics and choose the best out of them, the polar Pro filters give you the edge a must have, I took one higher up but it did not give the same effect it had to be a low shot I have had a canvas print done from the pic it looks amazing good luck just be random in your shots
Hi all, has anyone used the polarising/ND filter from PGY Tech and can comment on whether they’re worth buying??? I’b be grateful for any advice.
Best, Marcus
Even with the aperture closed right down it’s often not possible to get that ideal 50 or 60th second shutter speed (for video), ND’s will help with this.
