PLEASE, use the "M" setting on your camera.
That's the"Manual" setting and it'll take MUCH better shots.

this is mine its a fuji s5200/ s5600
If that's your camera then how did you take that picture?
the most i spent on a fish i still have is $4 for the oscar when it was 1.5" almost a year ago
If you want a cheaper camera, check out http://www.techbargains.com/ for some good deals going on right now.
my avatar pic was taken with a D50 i borrowed its a good camera but you do need to set up the tank and camera settings to get real good quality pics.

Ewurm - go to your local camera shop, explain what you are doing to the guy there, and see if he can show you how to use your camera properly. In return for the info, buy an extra memory stick or something.
I use a 3.3 megapixel Olympus C-3000 zoom (and a 2.1 megapixel C-2020 before that), and get better pics than a lot of my friends with much more advanced and expensive camera equipment.
Email me if you want me to send you some of my better pics. I've also had some good shots posted for species ID on another well known cichlid site. It's usually less the camera and more the cameraman. Oh, and if you like my shots, you can usually pick up a used C-3000 for $150 or under on Ebay.

I tried using a 500 watt worklight, worked well with some tanks, not others. But no macro function means small fish pics suck like a pleco.
