Pictures

How do you guys take such amazing pictures? I have a Sony DSC-T1 5MP digital camera and my pictures never come out so clear. Are you guys making some sort of tube or under water device that enables you to take good quality pictures?

 

I was able to get some good pics with my DSC sony as well.
Make sure you use the micro setting on the camera and a tripod. Then play around with the angles of the picture hitting the glass.
I would say out of every 10 i take i get about 1 good one.
I also take a bunch of pictures in the tank with the marine kit.
I believe my ativar was done like that.

 

I have a sony dsc s45, sometime it take amazing pics, sometime they look like crap. If I hold my tongue just right, it will take amazing pictures without the flash, 99% of the time it takes blurry pics without the flash.

 

If you are using a point and shoot non SLR digital camera I would say that using 1. a tripod, 2. the macro setting, and 3 use an eye piece instead of a LCD screen if possible. Taking pictures of moving critters is always a bother though.

 

+1 on that.

You need to keep it as stable as you can. Hand holding will result in a blurry shot 9 out of 10 times hence the tripod. I dont know what kind of settings you have on that model but if you have aperture priority set it on that and shot with the biggest aperture you can (smallest number). HTH

thanks guys I will try the tripod and looking into the settings on the cam and post the outcome.

 

dang it my cam does not have a hole to screw in to the tripod...any other ideas. Dam I hate that!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Light up the room as much as you can! The more light that goes in to the lens, the faster your shutter-speed will be. You need a fast shutter speed to eliminate blur! Hope this helps. Another suggestion would be to use velcro to attach your camera to a step ladder for example to act as a tripod...
