Heehee, I am jealous of the D300!

Like they say Film photography is science, digital photography is art!

My WB was still set for the basement tank, I didn't change it before shooting the nano.

Of course I am jealous! Look at your brain sized brain lol!

Cheers buddy!

You gotta start shooting in RAW and get yourself some Capture NX2 software, camera WB is a thing of the past, get with the times geez

Even my D300 is old technology now with the D90 and D700, I haven't even had it for a year yet.

On a side note does your D200 have the sensor for the wireless remote? I just found out mine doesn't have it so the remote is useless to me, I must of spent a good 3 hours trying to get it to work
Anyway you can have it if you want.

I have the D80 but for me it's more of a glorified point & shoot. I need someone to come teach me how to utilize it properly.

When I shoot weddings I shoot RAW and work it in CS3. The NX2 is good as well. When I bought my D200 the D300 came out two weeks later.... bastards!

I use a tethered Nikon MC-36 remote. It works well. Maybe Colby's camera can use it?

Looking good Scott! But you better be careful.... if you put much more coral in there you'll hardly have any water volume left

I've been going slowly; I don't want to lose coral just to have the tank look full. I will be adding some more stuff once I see how this stuff does for a month. I won't win the competition since my tank won't look filled out.

I still have my harlequin shrimp which I am waiting for a mate for it before I add it to the tank. I will still add more zoos and maybe some more chalices and something wavy. I'm just nervous to lose nice corals senselessly.

As far as I know my D200 will use the Nikon ML-3 wireless controller. But I prefer the wired MC-36 with all its bells and whistles.

Yes but I already gave it away.

Looking good Scott! Slow and steady wins the race

I'll have to get Wendy to take some shots of the tank. I'm stuck out at work. Nothing much has changed. I added my Harlequin which I'll put on the updated budget once I get the picture up. Oh, and there is no way in hell I am counting the starfish in my budget haahaa (food item). There are plenty more corals I want to add, I just want to take my time. It will probably lose me the competition but that's ok.
