i'm wondering what if u dun want to shoot fishes with any flash.. just normal tank light? What kind of camera to use? It definitely has to be very high end. Able to jack up the ISO very high but yet keep noise level low.
Dun need to recommend Canon 1D Mark2 those kind.. i think need min 2k budget? |

Or simply upzz ur budget to $2k, so that u can buy a flash unit. And also, u need to factor in that u can use for normal scenarios. |

Use the P&S camera. Invest on continuous light kit that will be much lesser than $1500.

Do take "amiidae" advice. U need flash for good photo. Else invest in good lens with aperture 1.0 or 1.2 That would cost U even more. Another alternative is to up your fish tank lighting to super bright. cheers, Canon |

I personally do not like use flash for fish photography. Flash will take away the natural color of the fish if the angle is not right. Furthermore you may need more than one flash to get the right lighting to lit up the subject. The photo I shared below is taken w/o flash with my Canon 500D mounted with a 18~55mm kit lens. The tank light used is a 4 tube 56W T5 and a 4ft Nan light. I have the ISO set at 1600. |

Thanks. but if you look closely, the masters out there dun leave their flash in naked mode and fires away full blast.
They put on clothing on their flashes ~ diffuser to soften the lighting to make light as natural as possible. they may also set flash to manual mode and fires at half or 3/4 the flash capacity. Some of the diffuser may be DIY type. The position of flashes are also important. |
