jzz30tt Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I will say that fish tend to be one of the hardest things to get right. Saltwater tends to be easier with all the extra light but some of the fish tend to be more active too so there's a trade off. One of the things that involves the most throw away shots of just about anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jzz30tt Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) I will say a fast lens on an slr makes the job a lot easier. Same thing with using off camera flash with an slr. Thats pretty good considering you're working with a Sony W35 point and shoot. You end up taking 5x the pictures to get keepers than you would on a faster camera/lens setup.

Jayba Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 The key for is that the flash has to be above the water. If you shoot the flash from the front, you get a funny look. For a point and shoot I used to pile all my lights above the tank to get it real bright, and then not use the flash. Luckily now I have a SLR and wireless flash I can place above the tank.

jvision Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 I edited your links. If you want the pics to show up in the thread, copy the line on photobucket that has [ IMG] in front and [ /IMG] at the end of the URL. (or just add those tags to your link - that's what I do when editing your posts). Lookin good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
