ok so im jealous! def be looking forward to some more pics nate! you should try for a better pic of that wrasse! what species did u say that was again?
 
Very cool camera. I notice it has a Leica lens and 18X optical zoom. Very awesome. Nice macro shot but the other one looks like you were having a seizure:) Keep 'em coming.
 
I have been looking to up grade to that one too....I currently have the DMC-FZ10. Best all in one camera in my opinion is that Panasonic platform.

Haha! I am still learning :lol:

Remember most of my nice photos up to this point have been taken by Vince so I have some catching up to do to get as good as him. Also I have always found Actinic only shots are difficult to get right. In that first one I was focusing (or at least trying to focus) on the corals and rock work. I took another one that didn’t come out any better but I was focusing on the fish and the corals are all blurry. Hopefully I will get some better shots soon so I can post them on RC.

I really like this camera a lot! I think it is great for aquarium photography so far. It is a very smart camera that is easy to use and has lots of features. I am sure this camera is capable of much better shots than the ones I have posted so far. I still need to finish reading the manual and learning all the tricks. It took me a while to choose this camera but with all of the features it has and the great price I couldn’t go wrong.

White balance is the key.

Could you expand on this idea Dave? I am open to suggestions...
 
Great camera. On another board that I frequent we pooled together and got a senior member one of those. Loves loves loves it.
 
Check out the new toy I got for my new toy from PETCO today!

An acrylic top down photo box for 75% off! It was actually a betta fish tank but it is the perfect size for my camera. SCORE!!

Here is a new photo I took with the new toys...
