Rate this Entry
Well thats basically it I had a little time before work to mess with some of my camera settings, take a few pictures, and post them on here to try and get a few pointers but these do look better than what I typically have taken.

    the last three shots are three different settings from less light to more light before it becomes so bright it's a horrible picture, so more less, or middle?

    Cyano - I HIGHLY recommend using custom white balance. I read a post on here the other day suggesting it among other useful things, and it made all the difference in the world. Here's the link:

    awesome article I really appreciate that link, I will try and finish reading it when I get a chance (a little too busy at work for a change today) I am still waiting on a response from my wife since she is at home with the camera to tell me the make and model I had remember someone mentioning white balance options before and looked all over my camera settings and could not find it at all assuming my camera even has that option. When that camera was purchased I didn't even have a reef tank so that was not at all one of my considerations

    found the instructions for it online, seems i have to set it using some type of color under than lighting and it will "automatically" adjust in manual mode? i dunno, lol
