  1. Biological filtration,will a fluidized bed filter do the job

    Yeah they must be a thing of the past, cant really find any info on them, and from the replies Ive got on RC the cons seem to outweigh the pros of using one, they sound good in theory though, but so does a lot of stuff :roll:
  2. Biological filtration,will a fluidized bed filter do the job

    I have a couple of prop tanks from which I will be removing the DSBs to allow for more flow and easy cleaning. The DSB is the only form of biological filtration, and Im searching for something to take its place. I would rather not go with the conventional bio wheel/ball method, and have been...
  3. Resolution and focus

    Thanks for the replies, im gonna try it at a higher res and see what happens. The reason I didnt do it in the first place is that I didnt want the file to take forever to load, will shrinking the pic reduce the load time? Heres one of the particular pics that have been giving me trouble, I have...
  4. Resolution and focus

    Ive been shooting my nikon 4500 quite a bit, and Im having a little trouble getting a sharp image at times. My question is does resolution have an impact on sharpness, ie if I shoot at a higher resolution and shrink the pic, or not, will there be deeper detail. Not sure if that makes sense. Im...
  5. Looking for a new digital camera

    Yeah, I wish there was a camera store in my area that carried anything but the standard stuff, I went to the best one around and they couldnt help. I saw a set of 28mm filters on ebay a while back, just wasnt sure how good they are, and I cannot locate them on ebay anymore. I will check out B&H...

  7. Looking for a new digital camera

    Thanks for the replies, I will definitely pick up a set of those filters. Does anyone know if the telephoto lenses have macro ability?
  8. Looking for a new digital camera

    Thanks all :D So far the camera is turning out to be exactly what I wanted, although I still cant get close enough ;) Ive been looking into the 2x and 3x lens, and a +1, +2, +4 set of filters, can anyone comment on any of these?
  9. Looking for a new digital camera

    pics as promised ;)
  10. Looking for a new digital camera

    Yeah thats exactly what it looked like, the image was being blow up rather than zoomed in on. Well ive decided on the 4500, it has a better macro focusing range, and the lens donst extend when it zooms, and I can get it for about $400 brand new on ebay. Ill post some pics when I get it :D Thanks...
  11. Looking for a new digital camera

    One more question, at first I was a little confused about optical and digital zoom, but today when I was playing with the 4300 I noticed it would zoom smoothly to a certain point, the lens would stop extending, and then if I kept zooming it would enlarge the image by like 150% 3 or 4 times, is...
  12. Post Your Photography Equipment Details HERE!!

    Camera Manufacturer: Sony Camera Model: Mavica MDV fd73 Digital or Film? : Digital Editing Software: None Other / Misc. Comments: This was a great camera, and in many ways it still is, the 10X optical zoom is a really nice feature, and the fact that it records directly onto a 3.5 disk makes...
  13. Looking for a new digital camera

    Hey Len, thanks for the response. I went to a camera store today to check out the 4300, man is that thing tiny, never would have guessed judging by the pics ive seen online, and the size of my current digi cam. One thing I didnt like was that the lens extends when you zoom, i can see that...
  14. Looking for a new digital camera
