Picture this: What type of camera do you use to take pictures of your reef tank?

[Kittypowpow]

Does anyone have any suggestions for 46mm lens filter to take pictures of my tank? I'm assuming orange of some sort, but don't want to waste time purchasing multiple ones to find a good one.

Doesn't it just show when you use a quality camera and lens. Phones are great but simply cannot match the quality and clarity achievable with a decent camera/lens combo and of course the knowledge on using it

do you use a filter over the lens? I'm using a Z50, but want to filter out some of the excess blue from the lighting.

NO FILTER

I manually adjust White Balance to achieve the desired colours and use an off camera flash/strobe usually directed from above or if theres an overhang from the front.

I have not handled a Z50 but fairly sure it has manual white balance
