[QUOTE="nidding, post: 249399, member: 17555"] Is it a marine or a fresh water aquarium? Marine aquariums often times use lights that are somewhat blue compared to what we usually point our cameras at, which can make it hard for the auto ISO to adjust right. Therefore I would advise shooting raw to get a chance to control white balance. The tip about shooting right up in front of the glass is not bad, as reflections can be a real bugger. It all depends on what lights are in the room you are standing in, though. All the same, it is however important to keep the lens parallel to the front glass of the aquarium. If you don't the image will become unclear. And make all the tests you can get. Honestly, I find aquarium photography to be quite hard to get right. The best of luck :) [/QUOTE]
