Yeah....will be posting up soon.....but only a few quite nice... :cry:
Didnt expect the fireworks to come to close and high! Tripod cant turn high enough.
But Don, your shots really nice. Lol ;)

As for focusing, i used 9 point focusing in the end.
Manual settings stayed at F8.0/5sec. No time to change settings cos halfthe time trying to reposition my tripod...... :cry:

Seriously, I don't know how to use the 9 point.. :embrass:
Never read up beforehand, so just use the One Shot AF.
I also kalan kaboh liao and just lower from 8sec to 4sec when i got time..

BTW, you bought a new tripod? Saw you carrying a black tripod bag.
 

Don: Haha. No la....i was helping Dominator carry his tripod. Should have bought a tripod...... :mad2:

Unseen photos also good! :thumbsup:
JD ones must give extra credit manz....he use hand support and still can take so nice...imagine if he did use the tripod... :think:

Loading my pics into multiply now.....can go have a look.... :D
But not very good, especially the angle. Comments welcome.
Can post my pics here also, cos i seem to have problem posting pics in this forum.... :dunno:

Practise more, dude. Dun get upset over it. The more u feel that ur photos is bad, the more u should strive it. :)

I myself also didnt get all the good photos earlier on. All either cut at the top or the bottom, or over exposed. :bsmilie:

Its ok man.. NDP is another training session for all of us man. no worries. NDP at least 1-2 time for fireworks. Preview session and actual day. Can practise also :thumbsup:

i find firework very hard to shoot as different fireworks have different setting, some underexposed, some overexposed, i have to keep on adjusting my shutter speed as i shoot. most of them are not the exposed i wanted :confused:

i usu. use f10, 2sec, focus to infinity.
