real fast.. if you had to chose between these 2 cams.

[skirrby]

which one would you get..
canon powershot a70 http://www.circuitcity.com/detail.js...9&catoid=-8025
or the fugifilm finepix s3000 http://www.circuitcity.com/display_r...3&catoid=-8025
both the same price.. but what would you chose for tank shooting.. and as a good overall cam

I had a Canon before I bought a Sony - definitely Canon - the Canon was great -dont know much about fuji.

my dad has a old fugi.. every pic ive posted on this board was taken with the fugi.. even the one i have as my avatar

My dad has a fugi and it is awsome. Just like the one you are looking at. Cannon is a good one too. I have a Cannon A20 but like the fugi much better. I would get the Fugi.

Nice pics - maybe you should go with the fugi ...

 

[skirrby]

well i did it. marched into circuit city 5 min before they closed.. talked to the guy.. and he recomended the fugi.. they were the same price so it didnt matter to him what i got but thier camera guy said the fugi is better for what i want to use it for.
and i got 14 days to change my mind if i want to change to another camera

 

[ejensen]

That is a great camera. I like it because it is more like the old school camera. Post some pics of you tank.

 

[skirrby]

sure will. let me get all the cam software on.. and flick on the tank lights.. all my timers go off at 10

 

[skirrby]

well besides the rock needind a scrub and sand all over it.. here are some nice zoos that were hitchikers on the rock. it was nice to see them open today becuase i didnt think they would make it being out of the water as long as they were.. they arent all open cause i had to turn the lights back on to take some pics with my new cam
and here goes the first one.. no actinics on in this pic

 

[skirrby]

same shot. with actincs on along with the daylight this time.

 

[skirrby]

full tank shot. can you belive it only took about 2 hours to get the rock like that lol... it was fun but frustrating at the same time.

 

[skirrby]

lol sure came a long way from this... this is back when i first bought it.. if this dont show you how much swf.com has helped, i dont know what does.. id still be looking like this if it wasnt for you guys.

 

[skirrby]

and some nice green shrooms as hitchikers also... i love how these glow under actinic.

Nice pics - nice choice of camera as well

 

[skirrby]

side view.. sorry its at a angle.. i was leaning over something when i tried to take it.
water is still a little cloudy from yesterdays setup.

 

[skirrby]

and bleh! i found a aptasia

guess ill have to get something to kill it before it goes and makes himself alot of friends

 

[bsktmom]

You have some nice rock. I wish I had gotten hitchikers like that.

 

[skirrby]

wow really.. i was unaware of that. k wont talk about it again

 

[skirrby]

oh yeah i can do that.. lol its to early to remember stuff like that. i dont think the cycle will last very long cause i used dougs rock and some of his live sand. along with some bagged live sand. but if you want to hook me up with some xenia when im ready ill gladly take some

I have never seen so many people spell Fuji wrong in one thread.

Good choice.
