I hate this new camera, I really do. Here are last nights attempts to capture my tank.

Thoughts?

I guess I'm just being hard on myself, and getting used to this camera. I hate it.. I've asked for help from people who look and act like they know what they are doing, but they always ignore me. blah.

What camera?

How close to the actual colors are they? The whites seem really bright, but it's a great start with a new camera.

--Tripod
--Timer or remote release
--Custom white balance
--Underexpose by one stop
--Lens face parallel with glass
--Glass clean on both sides
--Fill frame as much as you can with subject
--Don't get closer than your lens' minimum focusing distance.

Not to bad. Underexpose and good editing software and you got it.

Have to disagree with Karlm slightly. You need to get the exposure right in the camera so you don't have to rely on editing software to save the image. Editing software should be for relatively minor adjustments.
