Default Playing with the camera

Here's a few shots, trying to tweak the camera. And a better lens and tripod would help

WoW!!! Love the variety of SPS you have in your tank (and fish too)! Boy, would I love the opportunity to see your tank, live! I could spend hours and days playing with my camera in front of your tank ( I would even pay you LOL)! Awesome tank (from one Van Isle guy to another.
PS what are you shooting with?

RR, you're welcome over anytime, you can even take pictures for free -lol

I'm using a Nikon D40 with stock lens, having trouble with white balance for starters, gotta run them thru photoshop to clean them up. It sucks, because the colors are much nicer in person. I'm going to try a box for the top down shots, and keep playing with settings. PM me closer to the weekend and see if we can get you in here.

Brad,

Will do! Try setting your WB to 10000K. I find manual adjustment to the WB better. Have fun with it! I know it is frustrating at times but so is growing and caring your reef, right? Now you have two bad and expensive habbits LOL

I don't have that option (as far as I know). A bunch of presets, then a custom that gives me an error most of the time, and crap pictures the rest of the time

Gorgeous man. Looks better everytime I see it. In the first pic on the right... is that a pearlberry? looks a lot like the frag I just picked up...

did you set your custom with a piece of white paper becide the tank so the tank lights are on it? lots of new growth and new corals since I was there last
