Fireworks - if you've had great results with the 170 I'd love to know about it

All these years, but never filmed fireworks! Big show next week for commercial client and I will have HPX170's in two positions without operators. If your experience can help point me in the right direction it sure would be appreciated. There's a lot of widely varying info out there!
 
For sure use 60fps. Be aware that you could easily overexpose so be ready to change exposure after it starts. I would also make a few decisions on how long you want to expose, that will effect the "look" a great deal.

BTW Im completing a Motorsport documentary where much of the footage was shot with the HPX. It was a pleasure to use much of the time in that run and gun type of work.
