new clowns, but really bad picture- please help
 

I got 2 percula clownfish almost 2 weeks ago and they're doing great, they're the first addition to my 65g. I have a Canon Powershot A75 and this is the best picture I could get. Any tips on how to get a good picture of moving fish with this camera? Oh, the green dots are clumps of hair algae. I'll be getting rid of that soon.

Ive got this camera. What setting do you have it on?

A tripod will help wonders!

If your camera has a manual shutter speed mode, use it to set a faster shutter speed to freeze the fishes motion. Also if you can prefocus the lens by aiming at an object then pressing and holding the shutter button at the halfway point so that the camera is not working to focus when you shoot and ending up targeting the wrong object. Choose something that is at the same range as where you want to capture the fish, then just wait, wait, wait for to to swim into place.

I just have the settings on auto. Yes, there us an adjustable shutter speed. I'll read the instruction manual and see how to work that. Thanks for your help, I'll post better pictures when I get it going.

Also use manual focus. If you don't your camera will focus on the tank instead of the fish. :smile:
