beast = nikon camera flash SB600 ....
first try ... came out pretty bad xD im sure im just not using it right. a 200 bux flash has too many option x_x .... and i had the flash mounted on the cam instead of doing it wirelessly on top of the tank , cuz i couldnt figure out how to do wireless syncronize yet xD oh well, first time, can't expect much... *parts* of the pics came out clearer and more focus than when i didnt have the flash , but still not focused xD oh well... color came out real well though...through time and experience, i'll eventually get it ^^

remote on top of the tank will make it much better. What body are you shooting with?

im using a D80... so technically it can auto sync it wirelessly by itself , but i havent figure out how to do the settings yet xD
 
commander mode will fire a pre-flash to sync the external, and when you figure that out you'll be floored by the pix!
 
ya... commander mode xD thats what i had been tryin to find.... i manage to find the sync mode on the flash but no where on the cam xD
 
looks great IMO....
 
at 3:30 AM ... when im suppose to asleep... i found the commander mode xD but the models(fishy) are all asleep ^^;; dont wanna bother em...
anyway good nite ...

and thanks guys xD
 
heres a quick pic i snapped with flash from on top of the tank .... wirelessly.... still workin on it ^^;; have a lot to learn from the pros

the fish is not in the best pose, but oh well... just a quick pic, and im sure everyone would agree that an azul that size will look great from any angle xD
