:woot: Amazing.....Beautiful.....Exceptional......Aquascape!......:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:.

Thanks for posting Paulo:thumbup: Great photography, there all excellent!

Purchase a roll of Black felt! Use this on the Back and Side panels...this helps reduce reflections! Pictures should be taken in the dark with just the aquarium lights on! More lighting can be added to produce better results! Cheers hoggie

Hi Big Tom Ive taken your advise on board....I don't want to be bothered with setting up equipment etc.....for taking Macro photos I just want to take some decent pictures. What lenses do you recommend for taking moving objects. I liked the photo of the Cory on one of the topics. Regards hoggie

Hi Photographers I had the above camera for a while. I'm a novice using cameras.... can anyone give me pointers on getting the best out of this camera. Setting up the camera for aquarium shots.Or is it just a naff camera. look here :arrow: http://www.praktica.de/index.php?id=22& ...

Hi John As a non camera man these shots are absolutely stunning quality. I would love to get a camera of that quality but that will have to wait. It just shows that not giving up and perseverance can achieve. Regards hoggie

Thanks John Yes,that's what i was meaning. I'm looking for something that will take good quality photos with the macro lens. and also i could use periodically for holidays/family photos. I would like the camera to be light and a reasonable size. Thanks for the reply. hoggie

Hi Photographers I'm thinking of buying the above camera body only, and adding a couple of lens latter. one a macro. Or can i get a lens that does various jobs. What ones do you suggest, what does non ISO mean? I'm no camera buff. Hope someone can point me in the right direction. Cheers hoggie
