Hi, I photographed some fireworks last 4th of July using Kodak 100 speed print film (can't remember if it was Gold or Royal Gold)using my PZ1p and FA*24mm f2.0 and cable release. When the fireworks were launched I just held the shutter open for several seconds while the rockets exploded and trickled down. Pics came out great. (Get 36 exposure rolls.) Also, I used a tripod of course. You don't need fast film for good results. Slower is actually better.
Good luck.
