    sorry i was experimenting with photo bucket.any way i usually use the close up setting and shut the flash off and take a bunch of photos before getting a decent one.my stupid neon toadstool is like a chartruse color but comes out white every time.that green hydnopora is all solid green and looks half yellow in my photo.

    I have to use a flash to get decent pics of moving fish.

    Helps much to have camera close to glass and pointed down at a slight angle. If you still get a "flash blur" is easy to "crop" out.

    You can try to adjust the ISO! Try to put iso to 800 or 1600! Higher sensitivity = shorter exposure times!

    Hi Cam...

    Did not work out for me...:-/

    Moved ISO up to 1600 and pics came out grainy and not entirely clear...

    i.e.

    As opposed to much lower ISO using flash...

    i.e.

    Maybe because I have a crappy lense on my small (Olympus Stylus 760) - :confused:
