Underwater Lighting

Submersible lighting for your Icelandic underwater production.

Underwater lighting requires specialized waterproof fixtures to illuminate subjects beneath the surface. Iceland offers some of the planet's most distinctive underwater environments—the famously transparent glacial water of the Silfra fissure between tectonic plates, the dramatic North Atlantic and Greenland Sea coasts, and ice-cold conditions that demand cold-rated fixtures and tightly disciplined dive operations.

We supply professional submersible lighting systems and qualified dive crews across Greater Reykjavik, the South Coast, North Iceland, and the Westfjords. Our team coordinates dive-rated LED and HMI fixtures, dry-suit-trained underwater gaffers, and battery systems built for sub-zero shoots and Iceland's dramatic light conditions.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What underwater lighting options do you offer?

We offer LED and HMI submersible lights rated for various depths and the cold of Icelandic waters. LED units run efficiently in tank work; HMI delivers powerful daylight-balanced output to push through Silfra's clear glacial water and North Atlantic conditions.

How deep can you light underwater?

Our equipment is rated for various depths—many units to 100m or more. Depth requirements depend on the specific production needs, and we select appropriate equipment accordingly.

Do you provide dive-qualified lighting technicians?

Yes, our underwater lighting technicians are qualified dry-suit divers experienced in Iceland's cold-water and Silfra fissure conditions. They can operate lights underwater while maintaining proper dive protocols.

What about color temperature underwater?

Water absorbs red light quickly with depth, and Icelandic water has a strong blue-green cast. We use daylight-balanced lights and filters to compensate—proper lighting beats post correction.

Can you light large underwater areas?

Yes, we can deploy multiple units for large-scale underwater lighting setups. This requires careful planning for power, positioning, and safety but enables dramatic underwater scenes.

What Icelandic waters do you work in?

We work the Silfra fissure (UNESCO Þingvellir), the North Atlantic and Greenland Sea coasts, glacial lagoons, and the dramatic Westfjords shoreline. We also operate in pool stages and tanks at Reykjavik for controlled scenes.
