DSLR - Kitumba F1 & Flowerhorn + 580EX

[chonhzilla]

Obviously they do not live together, these are my brother's fish. Older Brother - Flowerhorn, Younger Brother -F1 Kitumba fronts

The Fronts are about 1" not even a little shy. You can see them swim up to where the flash gun was sitting.

Flowerhorn, I'm not even sure what kind of Flowerhorn this guy is, but it was just about ready to attack the flash gun.

I give all the credit to my flash gun. I had good shots without flash but it was only one out of every 20 or 30 pictures. But with the new flash I've been able to narrow it down to 3 or 4 keeper shots out of 10 or 15 shots. Its made taking pictures of fish so much easier.

yeah same here. but i'm still trying to get my techniques down. its hard cause my tanks are 30" and 36" tall, so it makes it a little trickier. do you hold the flash or just set it in one spot? ive been having problems with it washing out the colors of my fish...

I shooting in RAW allows me to recover a lot of lost detail.
