I can get OK pics of my triops , since they stay still and dig on the ground, here's a pic of one of my triops .
However I can NEVER get good macro pics of my fish without using the flash, which ruins the colours, as you can see below .
I really need a new camera right now I'm using the pish-poor Konica Minolta e500 (even read the reviews here) and at the time it cost me £90/$180.
