How does Nikon d800 shoot fireworks?

1, bring your own equipment, come to the venue where the fireworks show will be held in advance, occupy a better front position, fix your SLR camera with a tripod, and it is best to add a hood to the lens. If a cable is released, connect and debug it first.

2. Debug the camera. When the night is almost over, you can start working. Because long exposure will produce noise, in order to alleviate this phenomenon, the first thing is to adjust the ISO value of camera sensitivity to a lower level, and it is recommended to be below 400.

3. Then set the exposure mode dial to full manual shift M, which is an important setting. In this way, we can adjust the shutter and aperture of the camera manually to achieve the desired effect.

When the fireworks start, you can start shooting. The basic strategy is a smaller aperture (higher than F8) combined with a longer shutter time (several seconds). After selecting the aperture, look at the exposure prompt bar in the viewfinder and adjust the shutter speed. If you shoot fireworks, the rule is that you would rather be slightly overexposed than underexposed, because sometimes the effect of overexposure will look gorgeous.

5. Of course, composition is also very important, and a bunch of fireworks should be completely integrated into the lens. It is suggested to use a wide-angle camera to shoot, and some parts of the picture can be reserved for urban buildings as a foil, rather than the monotonous black sky.

6. The last thing left is that you need to slowly adjust the camera parameters according to the scene. How to control the appropriate exposure time, shoot soft lines and gorgeous colors without making the picture too dazzling, these are the accumulation of experience.
