Answer
I think your ideal camera setup would be a digital SLR with high ISO capabilities (and low noise at those high ISO settings) and a lens with image stabilization OR a tripod-mounted setup.
Reasons:
- Digital: because you will be able to review your work and reshoot as necessary. As per the other commentor's recommendation, a digital Canon Rebel should be fine.
- High ISO (~800) will allow you to use faster shutter speeds which will steady your show; however, if you are going for longer shutter speeds for that 'movement' effect, higher ISO and short shutter speeds are not so much a factor.
- Low noise is important (the digital equivalent of 'grain')...and you will see more noise as you use a higher ISO with a darker subject. The nice thing is that Photoshop has a noise remover, so even if you shoot at 1600 with a lot of noise, it can be taken out later.
- Image stabilization on the lens (or on the body if you have a point-and-shoot) is helpful, esp if you are using a telephoto range; otherwise, your firework streams will streak left and right, or up and down.
- A less expensive alternative to the image stabilizer is the tripod...takes more time to setup however. ALSO, you should not use a tripod AND an image stabilized lens at the same time (if mounting an image stabilized lens on a tripod, turn off the image stabilization.)
Other tips, your autofocus may not know what it is focusing on when dealing with fireworks...if this is the case, set your camera to manual focusing and focus at just under or at infinity.
