Shaun N. Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 So as its the 5th of November and I'm taking the kids to Wicksteed park tonight for some fireworks, I wonder if anyone else is going to be taking any tonight and what settings they will be using to get the perfect shot? Also POST YOUR PICS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malisk Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I let my camera sit on the balcony while shooting these. Key is basically minimum ISO for lowest noise, small aperture (f/8 - f/11 worked pretty well for me), and long enough shutter to catch the fireworks. :p (and give the camera a good enough exposure) I think they were usually exposed for around 25 seconds each. So tripod / some sort of place to put it on is of course a must. :D Well, that's my tips. Here's what I ended up with: http://s3.amazonaws....bjcdo1_1280.jpg http://s3.amazonaws....bjcdo2_1280.jpg http://s3.amazonaws....bjcdo3_1280.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
