Nikon Asia + Australia
Nikon ask me to put their new NIKKOR Z 24-70 mm f2.8 S II to the test! Built lighter, faster and sharper than ever, it’s made to keep up with the action, no matter how quick it moves.
It’s always a pleasure to get a call from Nikon to test something new! Gear isn’t everything but in a world that moves so fast, it needs to keep up. Taking advantage of a very sunny day and a location I knew was architecturally striking, I enlisted the help of Will and James, two parkour athletes I’d previously met on a commercial shoot.
My brief to them was simple: let’s get up early and see what we can all do. I knew I wanted to play with the sun’s deep shadows, and by taking advantage of the autofocus tracking, I was able to shoot entire sequences of the guys in motion, making it easy to capture those precise moments where athleticism meets art.
