Advice for Pictures from Smartphone (all blue)

[Dustin07]

no matter what I do, I just can't get a decent picture. I saw a thread with some apps but none worked. I have a OnePlus that's relatively new although my wife's iphone 11 gets slightly better pictures. Ever since moving to the RedSea 50w it seems as though the blue leds interfere with the lense and I cannot for the life of me get a decent picture.

Any advice or favorite android apps to help?

To start, you'll need some filters to compensate for the blue we typically have in our reef lighting.
Something like this:
Orphek Aquarium LED lighting Extra Wide Coral Lens – Kit for DSRL 52mm and All Smartphones 4 Included: Macro, CPL Polarized, 15,000k Orange, 20,000k Yellow Made of Glass Better Photography! https://a.co/d/9FW3Xsp

From there I'll usually adjust the white balance to tune the colors to my liking. Most camera apps have a pro or manual mode to get to the WB adjustment.

Good luck and have fun!

I love sharing my corals with friends of course but I also want to be able to get better pictures in case I need help from y'all with ID or issues lol!
