Taking Pictures at Aquriam I am going to be in Chicago tomorrow and while I am there I am going to stop by this Aquriam place, indoor. I plan on shooting fish through the glass, with my 28-80mm lens, and 100-300mm lens, with saturated Agfa Ultra 50, and not so saturate Optima II, to bring out the colors in alot of the bright colored fishes. I'm kinda getting the surreal look. Any tips for what conditions I will be shooting. Should I bring my polarizer to reduce the risk of reflection on glass. Will these films fare well. Please give me a quick response. THANKS

I would suggest using a rubber (not plastic) lens hood. Then you will be able to place the front of the hood in contact with the glass without worying. If you don't have one you might try a polarizer, but I picked up a used hood for $5 at a local dealer.

The Shedd Aquarium in Chicago is a wonderful place. I'm too late to offer you advice, Stephen, but I'd like to know how your photos turned out. My thought is that ISO 50 is much too slow a film to use. You cannot use flash and the lighting of most of tanks is fairly dim.
