Shooting Fireworks with remote cameras
There are lots of ways to correctly photograph a fireworks display on the fourth of July at Whippoorwill, but with all of the options, why just stick with one method. I mounted 2 cameras on a tripod and set the shutter speed to 4 seconds and the aperture at F8 (ISO 200). Both cameras were triggered by a Pocket Wizard that was fired when my other Canon 5D Mark IV took a photo. One of the tricks I learned was to unmount the pocket wizard from the hotshot of the Canon, as it was causing a domino effect and shooting the other pocketwizards
