[QUOTE="Just-Clayton, post: 59730, member: 6495"] The way I capture fire works and lightning is I set the camera to bulb, ISO 200, F16-F22. Manual focus on an object closer to you, tilt the camera up toward where the fireworks will go off. When the rocket is going up hold your remote switch until its done exploding. With it in manual you dont have to worry about AF trying to lock on. Make sure you use a tripod though. With lightning I hold my remote switch down for 20 seconds. If nothing happens in that time frame I reset and do it again. [/QUOTE]
