Hi

I am new to this forum. So, I will make a short introduction.

Right now, I am keeping killifish mainly Nothobranchius. They are 2"-4" fish with short lifespan of about 1 year. Therefore, I am thinking that it will be good if I can take pictures of them.

I just bought a Nikon D-70 with the kit len and I am saving up for a macro len.

Therefore, I would like to learn from you on taking good pictures.

Thank you.
Edwin Lim

Hi Edwin. Welcome to APF.
I'll promise you will get a lot of good tips.

I'm just about to buy the D70 myself

Enjoy your stay and snap us some pictures!

Welcome aboard Edwin. You came to the right place. The folks here are very helpful and many have the same camera as you. I suggest you browse through the many threads that interest you and then start asking questions and posting pix of your killis. The advice team are always quick and helpful, and beginners like me enjoy learning from your questions, suggestions and pix.

Start sharing.

Thanks for your warm welcome.

I was comparing canon and nikon SLRs for a long time and after some considerations, I chose D-70 finally because I believe it is good buy now. I like canon D-20 too. But it was out of my budget.

I will definitely snap some pictures of my killifish and post them here for comments in the near future. Right now, my pictures are not good. I need to get some strong light and try w/o the macro len. I guess ultimately macro is necessary as my hobby progresses
