How did you get the shots so clear through the glass? Circular polarizer? I've got to give this a go when i get the chance https://photography-on-the.net …p?p=1193134&postcount=439

I tried shooting at the aquarium and only ended up like 4-5 shots of the 80 or so i took. -Andy-

I did not use a circular polarizer as I was having a tough time with lighting to begin with. To get them clear, I shot straight on into the glass, no angles. I had to move around alot to get a clear shot (clean glass and no people) I used a 1DMIIN and the 24-105L. Went to ISO 800 on some shots. That goodness for image stabilizer, my average shutter speed was less that 1/30th. All these are shots of bright lit areas, I could not get a clear shot off in the Outer Bay exhibit (Tuna, Turtles) and the Yellowtail/White SeaBass exhibit, too dark and the fish were too fast. We are going back in June and I will be taking my 35 F/1.4L and will be using ISO 1600 and 3200 next time.
