phoenix44 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 any pic I have taken is from that camera, so just look for a post of mine with some pics. Tank setup logs are a good source of pics. if you google the cameras - you'll get more answers than I can possibly provide. 10.1 MP I think.

Barrie Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 if the photos are blurey then exactly as Ira has said, there is not enough light. The auto shutter will belive that it needs to stay open for longer so the fish is moving. The macro setting on the camera is telling the cameras setting to auto focus on closer objects so that a small fish on a large back ground may not even register on the computer within your camera. Im only old so dont have much money as well but my advice would be that if your really interested in photography, then save up and buy a DSLR EOS 300 to 550 and the matching lens. The standard lens that comes with those cameras is easily good enough to take great shots. The best thing about a good camera is that it will last many many years as will any extra lens you may buy in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
