Do you guys use camera tripod to take fish pics?

[FishNCash]

i saw one for sale for $15 and was wondering if it's useful for doing fish pics.

For coral, live rocks, etc that requires a slower shutter speed and doesn't move much and/or at all moves, then yes. But, you can never go wrong with a tripod period.

i dont, unless i'm using a really slow shutter speed as H mentioned. but you cant go wrong with a tripod

I agree... can't go wrong. It's #1 on my Christmas wish list...months away...

Never.

I have at times and believe that it helps create better pictures.

I shoot freehand if I am using the 18-55mm lens but I use the tripod if I am using the 55-250 and shoot from about 10' away. Some of my best shots have been with the larger lens and the tripod. You will find the tripod a useful device for other styles of shooting outside of fish photography so it is definitely a worth while investment.

It's 15 bucks, buy it.

I just bought one for $15 free shipping. It's not professional but for $15 it looks great.

Depends on the type of shots i'm taking, if its fast moving fish, tripods don't really help, but if i'm taking a full tank shot or something, i do prefer to use a tripod to make sure its all spot on...
