It's always good to experiment. I checked my favourite shots from last year to see what settings I'd used, and they were all 4 seconds at f/11 on ISO 200. Used that as a starting point:scottwramsay wrote:We met a guy setting up the most expensive-looking tripod and asked him what settings he went for - he said 2 seconds at f/8 on ISO 200. I tried a few settings either side of that but they were rubbish - he obviously knew his stuff. It was easy to either make it too dark or get too much blur as the fireworks fell or smudged on top of each other.
