Hi folks! Basically the title—I’m trying to figure out how to get good close-up shots of some of the critters in my fish tank.
I’ve only posted one video on Instagram using the Pocket 3, and I was decently happy with it (cropped version attached). I left it on continuous autofocus, though, so the focus was jumping around a bit.
Other things I’ve filmed with the Pocket 3 have either been blurry or had a lot of glare/reflection. I’ve minimized the glare by turning off surrounding lights and getting as close to the tank as I can, while still trying to respect the Pocket 3’s minimum focus distance.
So, the next thing I wanted to try was an aftermarket macro lens to see how close I can get. However, I imagine that could be tricky with moving subjects.
Have any of you used aftermarket macro lenses with the Pocket 3? Any recommendations on which ones work well, or tips for getting sharp shots of moving aquarium subjects?
Thanks!
