A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Hi all! Kind of a strange question. I need to photograph fish in fish tanks (they live in water contained by glass and acrylic). Do anyone have any suggestions with what to do? Lighting is often horrible in a fish store. Not sure if flash is useful? Thanks!!!

You can purchase a flange to cover your lens and reduce glare

I wouldn’t put filters because the light is already low in these environments and you need a faster shutter speed

The biggest difficulty will actually be focusing

It’s almost impossible for autofocus to work so you need to manually focus but fish don’t sit still
