As stated you will have to be on a tripod to do this. Set your camera in Manual mode if you have it and set it to the longest exposure you can and your SD card will determine how long you will be able to record a Mpg on it (and maybe your camera). So in other words you may consider getting a bigger card. Also do not turn the flashlight into the camera or it will ruin your exposure. Try and find a small but very good flashlight (LED) type work real good.
Hope this helps,
Kevin

You will have to mount your camera on a tripod and set the shutter for the full 30 seconds your camera allows. Have the lens at its widest focal length and wide open at f2.8. Turn the flash off. That may be enough but I honestly doubt it. Usually what you want to do could take up to a 60 second exposure or longer. But hey! Its worth a try.
Good luck!

they say in case you spot flashing light fixtures you ought to search for medical interest right now! i'd call an opthamologist or physician immediately and tell them what is going on and take it from there.

the slowest shutter speed you can get with your camera. trails all over the place.
