My new camera Sony RX100VI and some shots

[hexcolor reef]

Hi all,
After thousands of research, I bought Sony Rx100VI. I'm very happy with the results.
My aim was to find the best point-and-shoot camera for my needs.

Here are a few shots I made and cropped from the entire photo. These are not taken with a macro lens.
I will keep this topic updated. It may be helpful who are looking for a point-and-shoot camera but cannot decide which one to buy.

Camera mode: Manual
Flash: No
F: 2.8
Iso 80 - 100
Post process: Yes (Lightroom)
Tripod: No

Cropped:

Originals:

The whole tank (80x40x40cm) is 80 liters 20gal.

Is that a leather on the right?

Thank you.

I was not trying to imply that you intentionally "hid" the settings, you simply stopped explaining what they were with your more recent photos.

Your photos are clearly getting better and I was simply curious what settings you are using.

I have been working on learning how to use the settings on my own camera so I can more accurately represent what I see to the viewing audience. I have gotten some good shots that I have made even better with lightroom, but I still struggle to get the coloration of my subjects as I see them. Again, lightroom helps, but I have yet to reach that level.

See my thread in this forum here for some of my own progress...

Working on my camera settings...

So I kind of took a break from trying to figure out my camera settings for a while... Tonight I decided to get back to work on learning how to get good pictures of my fish. These are the 2 that came out decent enough to even bother with post editing.... I will post more in this thread as I get...

oh, sorry for misunderstanding.
I started to use higher iso and f stop which makes my shots darker(can easily raise the exposure on camera raw) but more stable and less blur.

I would definitely stick with your own camera settings for Sony Rx100VI. I’ve been in the photography business for some time and these are magazine quality shots. It’s for sure a very sought after style of photography especially with macro. The low ISO brings great detail. Coloration, and depth into your shots. The high ISO on those clown shots not your style or same quality as these great shots

Must see, I thought that was a Torch at first sight
