okay...do any of you have an aquarium WITH fish lol....either tropical or salt water....and have you purchased a digital camera to take pix of snakes/fish. I am going to be setting up a 75 gallon salt water tank and I want to buy a good camera for snake/fish pix. On the salt water board it has been mentioned to get a camera that you can adjust the white light setting. Any of you familiar with this? I would appreciate ANY input. Thanks!!

That, I suspect, it to handle the glare associated with pics through glass into water, all the refraction of light.

On a side note, if you plan on taking close up, detailed pics of small things (like small fish), you'll want to get a camera with a short focal length, shorter the better - I have two small (16&quot snakes and I bought my camera with that in mind, it has a 2 cm focal length, which means I can take a picture of dime that will fill up the entire screen and still be really clear, such that you can read the writing and see the shadows.

You can search google.com for digital camera and find some pages that are very good about explaining it.

In fact about 4 months ago (i think in this very forum) there was a post about digital cameras with a very good link that explained a lot of the basics.

Edited to add: found the link!

i believe most of the high end digicams have adjustments for the white balance. I know that most all of the sony digicams do. All mine that ive ever owned did.
