[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 467989, member: 15805"] ISO 100, f/11. Some will be brighter and the highlights will burn out. Others will be darker and end up underexposed. But there's no way to predict this in the field to adjust for it. So shoot in raw so you have the most data to edit in post. My method is to set the camera up on a tripod with the head slightly loosened so I can adjust the camera by pushing on it. I use a wired release to open the shutter once I stop moving the camera. I keep the shutter open until the fireworks dies out. I prefer to do multiple firework bursts in post instead of in-cam. [/QUOTE]
