[QUOTE="LucVogels, post: 847341, member: 70889"] This evening I did some experiments based on the feedback above. The baseline: I have increased the light settings to achieve the maximum intensity in the tank. The first picture I shot with 1/250s F/7.1 (auto ISO 1800) +0.3EV with 24mm focal length. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/QtGNfZSv/Juli-029.jpg[/IMG] The image after is shot at 35mm (34.5 to be exact ;)) with the same settings. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/hjW42RM6/Juli-030.jpg[/IMG] Image 3 has the same settings as 2 but I believe the focus point is changed a small bit. [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/8CrPdzBD/Juli-031.jpg[/IMG] Image 4 I have increased to F/9, and compensated lighting by reducing shutter to 1/200 and +0.7EV. The ISO changed to 2800. I do not like this image. What is the main cause here? [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/PxsfSn2n/Juli-032.jpg[/IMG] Image 5 I started to play with an external flasher. I have positioned it under an angle to prevent a nasty reflection. I notice I have to place it far in order to get an evenly distributed flash. Directly flashing from above will never get an evenly distributed intensity; the tank is too big for that. I am also not sure if I like the flash from the front. it does not feel natural or am I wrong? F/9 1/200 ISO 800 and +0.3EV [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/50d9sWnf/Juli-033.jpg[/IMG] F/9 1/200 ISO 800 and -0.3EV [IMG]https://i.postimg.cc/zBZDxY0J/Juli-034.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
