To get a nice exposure, you're actually going to want to let just a little bit of light into the camera for a longer period of time. Here's where a tripod (or other form of stabilization) is going to come in handy. Most newer mirrorless cameras don't include a flash at all, so this is more of a concern if you're using an older SLR.ģ. If you're using an SLR with a built-in flash, simply lowering the flash and setting the camera to Manual mode will keep it from going off. If you're using a point-and-shoot, the button with the lightning bolt will bring up a menu to control the flash-switch it to the Off position. You can help out the IBIS system by bracing yourself, working from a seated position, or using a monopod or powered gimbal to support the camera.įireworks are very bright, and using your camera's flash won't do anything to help your shot. Still, they're useful if you're not carrying one, or are at a location where tripods aren't allowed. Cameras like the Sony a7 IV, OM System OM-1, and Fujifilm X-S10 can manage decent handheld exposures, sometimes up to a full-second, but won't match the longer work you can manage from a tripod. If you have a newer ILC with a good 5-axis in-body image stabilization system, you can experiment with handheld exposures.
