How to shoot fireflies in the dark?

1 Fix the camera with a tripod.

2 Use a small aperture and set a long exposure time of about 3- 10 second, which can be extended if necessary.

3 aim at fireflies for composition and focusing. Manual operation is recommended.

4 can't use the flash.

Make more movies.

Because fireflies can fly, some fireflies will fly out and leave a light mark in the sky.

If you want to shoot a still firefly, you need auxiliary light, but the intensity of the light should not be too big, such as using a mobile phone or something. In addition, the irradiation time of auxiliary light should be shorter than the exposure time of the camera (depending on the situation), so as to show the light of fireflies.

It takes practice to understand. If you are patient, there will be many failures and many summaries.
