Love the pics...hey I have the 30d does it have the liveview on it?

Do you have any pics of fish? I havent seen any pics of fish from you. I wish I had corals that vibrant and "still", then all I'd have to do is just place my aperture to f/9-16 and let it sit on a tripod to capture.

not with that camera and lens combination.

i do have some fish pics with the XTi and 18-55mm kit lens. nothing spectacular.....i need more practice with shooting in AI Servo and Tv mode stuff.

Yea dont worry... those fish shots will get better with practice in time. I'd play with the manual option more. Set the Shutter speed between 1/25 to 1/100 with aperture at f/5.6-8 and ISO at 100-200 and tell me how your results are? I been getting clean crisp shots with settings around those, but if your hands arent steady you might have some trouble. Have fun.
