SUMMARY
Photographer Mads Peter Iversen explored the landscape photography capabilities of the Viltrox 35mm f/1.2 lens, typically designed for portraits and low light. He discovered that its wide aperture can be leveraged for creative compositions, using shallow depth of field to isolate subjects like flowers against filtered forest light. The lens also demonstrated good sun star performance starting at f/8 and maintained sharpness at f/16. While not a conventional landscape lens, its 35mm focal length proved useful in dense forests, and its f/1.2 aperture offers potential for astrophotography.
