Hey Everyone! Im new to reefing and to the Reef2reef forums! Im a cinematographer by trade so I love taking pictures and videos of my tank! What are some of the accessories that really have upped your photo game intensely?

Currently looking at top down waterproof tube that go on the lens? What do we think? do people have success with these?

Im a little obsessed so I dont mind spending a little bit. lately I have just been using the iPhone but really getting some cool stuff!

Do I have to upload my photos elsewhere in order to upload here? I was able to upload them after but couldn't do it on the intial posting?

🤣 I love a properly draped model, especially the fit in the Emperor’s New Clothes.

Otherwise I am just an amateur iPhone guy, with nothing like I mentioned on it.
 
I use an Orphek lens kit and my old phone. Sometimes I get a few good shots.lol

Check out Oceanbox Designs. They have a really neat kit of filters and a submersible viewer for top down photos with your iPhone. I'm still fooling around with mine to hit the sweet spot of realistic colors. Don't use too much orange filter.
