Pen that is a great picture. I would like to know what setting you have your camera set on to get a clear shot like you have , i have tried bit mine comes out streaks of lights and blurred

Thanks for any help,
Kay

1. Focus at infinity and then turn off the autofocus. There isn't anything to focus on when the firework launches anyway, and you already know where the camera needs to be focused. You don't want it hunting in the dark instead of taking pictures.


2. Set the shutter speed to 8, 15, or even 30 seconds. The exact time depends somewhat on the camera you're using and the conditions.


3. Use a tripod or a sturdy support. I find it's nearly impossible to handhold a long exposure.
