[QUOTE="Needa, post: 847327, member: 37799"] Great job documenting your process. Have no experience with aquariums. The 24-120 is not known as the sharpest lens, perhaps a fixed focal length lens with better sharpness. Supposedly the lens is sharpest at 35mm @ F4 but your depth of field would shallow, tried F11. Remember you are shooting through water which tends to defuse light so sharpness may always be an issue. I like the second image color but the filter is costing you a lot can you achieve similar results with white balance in camera or post? Is there different aquarium lighting where you could change the color and intensity? Might be something to play with if affordable. As Clovishound mentioned today's software can do a lot with sharpness, shadows and color. It is always best to start with best you can get in camera and you are well on you way. [/QUOTE]
