After dozens of failed attempts to get a good shot of my Fahaka through the glass, I bought an underwater case for my camera, only to find that the "file size is too big" when trying to upload them here. I have a Macbook Pro without any special or added software. Does anyone know how I can get my file size to be correct? I am new to digital cameras and really don't know what I'm doing lol. It's a Nikon and is 12 megapixels. Thanks for the help! As soon as I can get this figured out, I have photos to upload!
It's a crayfish! It's a snail! It's a... ah who cares?

Re: Photography help
Awesome, I was copying something from the album page. Thanks xray! This really isn't that bad once you know what to do. So now my question is, does anyone have any ideas or techniques for capturing good photos of your fast moving fish?

Re: Photography help
wait for them to slow down or stop... LOL. I guess the best thing to do would be buy a high speed camera.
Those who say money can't buy happiness don't know where to find puffers.

I just tried posting his pictures in a new thread. I'm using a Nikon S4000, and currently have the ISO set at 400 as a friend suggested for fast-moving objects.

They do kinda look like they have a cold or allergies. Or just drank too much rum!

At the Petco here they call them Rummy Nose, instead of Runny nose, so maybe they DID drink way too much rum lol.
