I'm quite a noob. Any tips on shooting fireworks besides using a tripod? What sort of aperture & shutter settings is advisable?

A tripod is definitely necessary if you want to get effects like the one TS got nod.gif
Long exposure shots are usually shot at ISO100, F11-16, bulb mode (shutter will close only when you press the shutter release) and shouldn't be too close to the fireworks~
The trick is to estimate when to start pressing the shutter and when to release it laugh.gif Theoretically you press the 1st shutter when the fireworks comes flying up, and the 2nd shutter after the fireworks sparkles fall; but of course its not as easy as it sounds since fireworks don't shoot one by one laugh.gif
