Hi all! Kind of a strange question. I need to photograph fish in fish tanks (they live in water contained by glass and acrylic). Do anyone have any suggestions with what to do? Lighting is often horrible in a fish store. Not sure if flash is useful? Thanks!!!

    You can purchase a flange to cover your lens and reduce glare

    I wouldn’t put filters because the light is already low in these environments and you need a faster shutter speed

    The biggest difficulty will actually be focusing

    It’s almost impossible for autofocus to work so you need to manually focus but fish don’t sit still

    Do you have the option of moving the tanks? We shoot aquascape photos in a dark room, and the lights are on the sides and top of the tanks. Dunno if that info helps.
