Sorry but I disagree, Theses are macro through a bow front.


I have more photos of angle shot going down the length of the bow and they turned out. The quality of glass ? What make of tank?

It will depend on the angle of the glass vs. the angle of the lens. Try to keep the plane of the film/ccd as parallel to the glass as possible to minimize distortion.

ok, i tried all angle and could not minimize distortion. Anyway, I am picking up this http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16830112033 so i can film it too :-) and take micro shot. Will see how it goes

Disagree with what?? You can still take macros through curved glass but the results simply won't be as good. The effect is probably worse with SLR cameras due to the larger lenses they use.

Also your macros are good and I would even say excellent considering the camera you used but there is clear evidence of distortion which gets worse the further away from the center. You'll see this effect even with a larger DOF and is a result of the curved glass.
