Thanks for all these tips. This was a super resource.
Thanks Folks
Great tips Jimmy and Zenzo! I forgot about the fingernails gliding on the glass tip for a cell camera. 👍
Great Topic! I needed some tips!
he is a photographer because his name is Jimmy, like jimmy olson…
Yeah, GUPPIES are the hardest! Great job guys!
Thanks I learned a few tips.
What portable light were you using to light up the tanks?
Solid advice thanks for the time fellas!
Great tips! I’ve tried using a fancy camera, but I don’t have a good understanding of it so I actually take better photos with my iPhone! I wanted to try one of the small macro lenses for iPhone just wasn’t sure if they actually made a difference.
Whatever jimmy gets paid, its not nearly enough!! What a wonderful, talented young man!!!
"Jimmy The Magician "
Thanks Guys.
What was the portable light Jimmy had with him? I always need more light and that was the perfect size.
Thank you for this Zenzo and Jimmy! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽I really like the finger nail trick. Now I just have to stop getting my fingers in the view, 😂
Nice fresh content!
Great tips! Maybe it goes without saying, but clean glass is a must too.
Appreciate the tips and a great video.
Great video! Very helpful! What is that light at 07:32? Where can I get it?
Wow, big thanks on the exposure adjustment on iPhone; recently got iPhone 13 awesome phone. Fired Up Videos and tips!!!
I love Jimmy's work. His funny little inserts crack me up too.
Thank you for the tips. Especially the iPhone tips I had no clue. I bought a canon eos rebel sl3 to try a new hobby and try making YouTube video. What would be a good beginner editing software?
Great stuff Zenzo and Jimmy💪🏽💪🏽👍🏼
Thanks you 👍👍👍 AWESOME tip's 💪💪
Would love more fish photography tutorials
Thanks for the highlight my friend! Had a blast this weekend. To all your audience out there good luck! Keep shooting! 🙂
Tomorrow there’s going to be 100 or more you tubers lol thanks for the pointers Jimmy
Thanks! I love how you see all aspects of the hobby.
HI GUYS WE LOVE YA THANK YOU
Great video guys. Glad to see s whiskey and his helpful tips. Great job Zenzo…
Great behind the curtain look. I'm going to use that fingernail tip today on the puffer fry tank
It's harder than you realize, given how close we are to the subjects and the fish can't move very far 🙂
As a photographer myself, I really enjoyed hearing his story about actually getting IN to photography….it's always different for everyone, but the "D" in video class was unexpected 🤣😂 I was expecting the "I've been great at it ever since high-school" type story lol really enjoyed this video though. And agree about photographing a fish vs video…..much more difficult to capture a still photo
Awesome guys, thanks for sharing!
Got to meet Jimmy at the last Aquatic Experience, you did the best thing you could for this video Jimmy is the Master Breeder Dean of fish on film!
