RE: Fish Photography

I have a Fuji2600 and I'm really happy with it.
You'll have to wash the glasses of your tanks first.
I use macro and flash, taking care not to be perpendicular to the tank but
between 30 and 60° angle (about)
Possibility to aim with the screen is great for this (for the 'normal' pics,
I still prefer the old fashionned way to aim with the little objective you
have to put your eye on)
2 megapixel is enoguh for most uses.
For prices, you'll have to check, as prices here in europe are disgustingly
higher when compared to the US, for the very same hardware...
