I want to take better pics of my tank. I am very proud of it. : ) I am not really interested in becoming a world class photographer: ). Can I just like.... go to Best Buy and buy a camera and have it make me look like I know what I’m doing?

I warned you : ). I am lazy!
 
Depends on how much you want to pay lol. We use a combination of our cell phones and a DSLR with a macro lens.
My cell phone... is paid for by the company I work for. I am due for a new phone in the next 2 weeks. It’ll be an iPhone... not sure which one.

(looking to the left...) (Looking to the right...) ... yeah, no ones looking Lol For what you just described...? What’s the price tag?
 
If you use a cell phone you can buy a yellow lense ($20 on amazon) and it will dramatically improve colors. Great pics on a screen but very grainy if you try to blow it up to like 8x10.

If you want to do well enough to make a clear 8x10 photo thats in focus and good color, your probably looking more in the 500+ range for like a canon and macro lense.
