Sharky « July 9th, 2010, 5:49 pm » Use a chair or something to rest the camera on if you aren't using a DSLR. I find it stops a lot of blured photos with point & shoots with slower shutter speeds when not using the flash...

luohanfan « July 9th, 2010, 4:50 pm » I can't get one clear photo! lol

Sharky « July 6th, 2010, 5:51 pm » Of course... You may be lucky enough to capture a great shot of your fish with just the right pose. If you are happy with your photo, throw it up - you got to be in it to win it!

Sharky « July 1st, 2010, 6:10 pm » It's a PITA JKS, they expect you to bend over backwards at the drop of a hat, but rarely have the courtesy to get back to you...
