Cell Phone Pic Advice?

[SeaMonkee]

Not owning a high end camera makes it difficult to get good shots, I'm a bit put off sending pics of blurry goo when asked for pics of coral. I've tried FPV as an app, and think I improved my shots, but until I pick up a good camera, are there better options out there as far as apps? Thanks.

Differing white balance, no clue which kelvin rating as the app doesn't display it, still a bit blurry it seems.

Get some gel filters helps a lot

Where would I buy them, do they cover the flash or the lens? Thanks, some confusion on my part when reading about them.

I use an orange gel filter and it helps. But because it's just a plastic sheet you lose picture detail. If you can find one that is glass I think your pictures will come out better.

That's a great point. Just ordered a 28 color pack of the film sheets. I'll have to search for glass. Wonder if acrylic is much of a difference.

I've been able to place the lens directly to the tank glass, I wonder if I adhere it temporarily to the glass if it will cut down on distortion(the plastic film).
