I went to my town fireworks last night, and I first had my 50mm on my camera, set at f11, 1/125. That gave me terrible results. I lengthened shutter time until I got 1 3". This gave me sufficient "lines" of the bursts. I was really close to the fireworks, about 300' from the launch site, so my focal length was "too long". I switched to my 28-300 zoom, at 28mm and shot the rest of the show. I may post up some results when I get them off my camera.
