antsy Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Put the camera on a tripod and set it to Bulb, Use a cabel or remote release to open and close the shutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan88 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Put the camera on a tripod and set it to Bulb, Use a cabel or remote release to open and close the shutter. i suppose that's only for DSLR users... i doubt my compact Fz5 can do that.... :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Well with some experience with my Canon A510 from summer, I had to set it to ISO 200 (DSLR would set to ISO800) and put the camera in shutter priority and had a 1 second shutter time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDog Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 i suppose that's only for DSLR users... i doubt my compact Fz5 can do that.... :pinch: dSLRs and SLRs (don't forget us film users!) my Nikon Digital Compact camera has bulb... and I mean - you're not going to need THAT long for a firework - we're taking a matter of seconds, not minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antsy Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 i suppose that's only for DSLR users... i doubt my compact Fz5 can do that.... :pinch: I didn't think , sorry :blush: , I am not used to those digital only Forums, In most photography forums if you dont own a DSLR then they still have SLR's. I became a Noewin member before I even knew how to use A camera properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
