How to use a smoke bomb.

  • Use the smoke bomb in an outdoor setting or in a well-ventilated area.
  • Be sure to pull the ring straight out to the side. You must quickly yank the ring
  • After about a minute, the smoke bomb should stop producing smoke, at which point you should dispose of it in in a container with water.

At the risk of stating the obvious, the purpose of smoke bombs is to emit smoke and color.

Smoke bomb photography tips

Smoke bombs are an excellent way to add cool effects to your photos. Here are some tips and tricks for using smoke bombs in your photographs:

  • Use a tripod or have someone hold the camera steady. Using a tripod allows you to use longer shutter speeds which gives the appearance of more smoke in the photo. You can also manually focus on something at a specific distance and set it so that it is  not changed between shots.
  • Using a remote allows you to control the camera without touching it. This is especially important when using slow shutter speeds or long exposures because any movement while pressing the button will blur your image. A timer can be used instead, but I personally prefer having full control over when my images are taken.
  • Using flash is important because otherwise, everything will appear dark since the light from smoke bomb won’t reach your camera sensor unless you use a very long exposure time which could often lead to blurry photos due to wind or other factors. Flash will freeze any movement and make sure everything looks sharp! If possible try using multiple flashes as off-camera lighting for creative results!
  • Manual mode on your camera gives you full control over every setting allowing experimentation with different combinations until getting just right effect desired by photographer
  • The key with smoke bombs is taking careful note of your surrounds and wind. It is best to have more than one smoke bomb so you can see how the smoke is flowing and in what direction. Always take several photos with your subject to capture that one special photo. You can create drama, mystery, or even a natural feel by using smoke bombs in your photoshoot.
