Anyone shot any fireworks? at DVinfo.net

I was wondering if anyone shot any fireworks, maybe on the 4th of July, with the FX7/V1.

Considering the CMOS way of scanning the picture and issue with flash photography, I'm curious to see how it handles fireworks.

If anyone has any footage that would care to show, I'd appreciate.

Thanks,
Sergio.

I shot some fireworks just for a test. It looks fine. I did not see any rolling shutter effect. I'm guessing because there was no background to light up (dark sky) the effect was not visable. It may in fact be there, but I could not see it. JM

I have shot fireworks and other pyrotech shows, laser show etc. No problem at all. Very nice colorful results, no noise issue.

Thank you guys for your opinions. Actually, just yesterday i shot some fireworks but didn't have time to check out the footage... looked good on the LCD, though.
