Moonshadow said...: I think these may be better than the ones I took last year and these are only OUR fireworks. The city fireworks won't be till the 11th for our city's harvest festival. I found out that the focal setting in the manual isn't the one I want to use. I'll work with that issue more on the 11th.; July 7, 2009 at 9:55 AM

Yes - set your focus to manual focus - then to infinity *all the way to the left* same for lightning :)
Set your ISO to 100, then set your F-stop according to how close you are to the fireworks. If you are very very close - try starting at around F-18 or so. If you are further away, set it to a lower F-Stop number such as F-8.

Moonshadow said...: Thanks, KsHC! I'll have to check my settings. These pictures didn't have the focus set at infinity. Not sure where it was set. I realized it wasn't in infinity towards the end of the sky displays and stopped to set it. Those pictures came out blurry, so I don't know what I did wrong.; July 10, 2009 at 11:25 PM
