“DSLR Camera” – The Internet Reefer’s Decoder Ring

DSLR Camera

A type of camera used in the hobby to take unrealistically detailed pictures of corals and their aquariums.

These pictures rarely look like what you’d see with your naked eyes even if no software “fakery” has been applied.  (A safe assumption?)

The camera can take in more light and see in much higher resolution than your eyeball in real life.

Entries in the Internet Reefer’s Decoder Ring are terms you’ll find in the course of online discussion about reefing that make very little sense.   In some cases, these terms seem to have been borrowed from another industry where the term did have meaning, but the meaning did not carry over to reefing.
