How to take good pics of your tank/fish? - Aquarium Advice

JamesR · 01-14-2005, 08:14 PM

Any suggestions/tips on how to take good pics of your fish and tank. Everyone I take looks ok at best. I'm sure it's operator error as some of the ones on this site are terriffic! Here is the best one i could get of my tank using a Kodak digital camera.

Thanks in advance,
Jim

A tripod is key. Also if your camera has a setting for "close-ups" you will have better luck.
