Here are mine from Saturday night, July 1st. Tripod, cable release, mirror lock-up, ISO 100, f11 for 8 seconds, RAW.
Same camera settings:

I had problems from the get-go. 1Gig card lock broke so camera couldn't read it, no tripod, and crappy location with power lines there, the fireworks weren't that high. O well.    some more: http://s19.photobucket.com …rewAnd9/MISC/July_1_2006/  http://www.GreatSave9.SmugMug.com

The only thing with the noise reduction is that it takes as long to run to filter as it does for the exposure. That means, I exposed for 8 seconds, and then waited another 8 seconds for the noise reduction. For every 8 seconds of fireworks exposed I missed 8 seconds of fireworks. Give it a try and make sure you are familiar with both the mirror lock-up and the noise reduction if you choose to use them. Good luck. Lovin' my 80D

I am surprised at well the handheld shots look. Very good work! Tomorrow night there is going to be a big display on the river in downtown Savannah. I am not sure if I will be able to go or not. Keep the shots coming. Lovin' my 80D
