Here goes a secrete little tip, These where under like 6-7 of the new AOL sol leds and i was getting crazy colors. Just put a NEW frag plug in the tank white balanced off that and everything was fine. Make sure its new and the colors of the corals became a little more real to life. some of those where taken just under blues, but the colors are true to life. Also if you think these are good ill be heading back up there in a few weeks for a real shoot and this week end i will be going to a high end stick collector with a amazing collection.

awesome work- what kelvin range did the WB end up being around? Just out of curiosity, I know LED's are typically a pain to shoot under, so very awesome those came out so crisp.

Honestly have no idea, My MK3 does it for me once its white balanced. Im unhappy with a few of them them they are not as crisp as i would like and the DOF is shallow. Also all pictures are done with a Sigma 180mm which I like ,but I think I might sell it soon due to I want to go back to a cannon brand lens.

Yea for real those are some nice pics! Thanks for the tip about the white plug. You could always crop the plug out of the photo

That is most of them, Those LED's killed most the photos until i did that plug trick, I will be down once you come back to get some good one's of everything, I might even break out the tripod.

Once you set the WB its set up till you change it again so we literly put the plug in took a picture took the plug out of the tank and i went to work.

Beautiful pictures M & M - LED pics are definitely harder to capture. I have tried and only wish they came out looking like this!!

 

[ctxmonitor]

Nice shots. So what camera and lens did you use to take these pic in? What kind of led did he have?
