Any of you guys have one of these? I've had the camera for a while now and I really just can't find the best settings to take pictures of my fish. They're never as sharp as I'd like them to be. Any tips that some of you photographers can give to me? Also I'd love to see some pictures from the people that do have these cameras and what settings you use.

there's no magic setting for taking fish pics.

manual settings must be adjusted accordingly, and that depends on a whole lot of stuff, like lighting, speed of fish, distance from the subject, what kind of picture do you want to take, etc.

you really have to understand the basics of what shutter speed, and f-stop are.

and use macro setting to take close-up shots.

Check out howstuffworks.com. I bet they have a simple explanation too.

If you have a local photography store, go pick their brains too:)
