Nice looking tank.

 

[greyfox]

Thank you, finally finished reviving it last weekend. Too bad my photography skill is poor :( . I'm hoping to learn from you guys.

Looks great! Lot's of room for goodies!

Here's a shot of the tank with lights on. Still can't get it right after spending the whole afternoon reading the photography for dummies book. :(

You should start a tank thread so we can watch your progress.

The majority of tank threads I've followed have good pictures. I don't want to start one without decent pictures.

Dont kid yourself...that second pic is way better than my FTS's. :)

What camera are you using? And GREAT looking start BTW.... ;)

 

[ficklefins]

What type of camera are you using? Truthfully, I don't even try and take full tank shots because it is so difficult for me. I'm not a big photography person but if you post some information about your camera and the settings you are using there may be others here who can help.

I for one would still like to see a tank thread. Perhaps I'm just a sucker for them.

It's a Panasonic digital camera model DMC-FZ8, I just got it a few days ago. If someone would show me some simple, basic setup to take decent pictures, I might try to do a tank thread. I've been reading up on photography because I know nothing prior to buying this camera.

Pics

:hammer: Be like me, buy a nice camera, dont read the directions, then be mad about how crappy your pictures are! (still havent read directions!) I think its a man rule. And I will not break a man rule! (unless significant other says so)

Oops... forgot about the info for the second picture. I only know about aperture, iso. I have no clues about the rest.

• Flash used: No
• Focal length: 11.6mm (35mm equivalent: 105mm)
• Exposure time: 0.033 s (1/30)
• Aperture: f/4.0
• ISO equiv.: 100
• Exposure bias: -1.00
• Whitebalance: Auto
• Metering Mode: matrix
• Exposure: aperture priority (semi-auto)
