I shot the Brooklyn Bridge 125th Anniversary Grucci Fireworks. It's raw video.
Gain -3db, Iris F1.9, Matrix HiSat, Cine Gamma 4 (no other settings modified), 1080p30, Mic Sony 680S Stereo Shotgun. Exception tail end was Slow Shutter 8 Frame accumulation and irised down.

People have wondered if EX1 can handle fireworks. This should answer that.

I had some real challenges with this. I wanted the frame in many shots to be from fireworks barge to peak hight. Vary that with medium and close ups of both fireworks and barge. The height of the fireworks varied widely though. Hence, lots of camera movement. I also wanted to get some of the fireworks behind the Brooklyn Bridge (2nd barge) but I wasn't in great position for that.
