How many of us here are photographers by profession or are semi pros from taking photos of family?

Anyway. Took my Alpha 7 II out the other day to take some photos but had major banding under whatever lighting the aquarium was lit with. Anyone come across this before?

Haven’t had that issue since I went to LED lights

Might be your issue might not be

Also I heard of these lenses that clip onto either your camera or the aquarium glass that filter out certain light frequencies to help capturing a more realistic image. Something to look into as well.

What are you using for a camera.. I have got decent photos of my tank with many different cameras..

Believe it has to do with the frequency. If I adjusted my shutter speed that should be able to get rid of the problem but I haven't tried. Out of curiosity what do you shoot aside from aquarium?



Okay sure but I want to take a picture with a good lens. Once I tried good lens there is no way I'm going back

I find nature and cat shots easier to take though as either is as finicky or as frustrating as shooting through water and glass to get a shot
