Lighting illuminated signs I am attempting to photograph illuminated signs which contain a series of individual lights. Because the lights are bright, the image comes out smeared, or too bright, or blurred around the lights. Help! I have tried both 35mm and digital cameras,with both more and less lighting. What can I do? Thanks much for your response.

This is tough; no matter what you do, have patience. It sounds like the illumination is uneven. Any way you can get bulbs of lesser wattage? I would also try exposure compensation on either your traditional or your digital camera; the bright lights could easily be tricking the meter. Try underexposing 1 to 2 stops. Also, make sure you are using a good tripod.
