I just point and pray with a 3 second exposure repeatedly until I get something. Then while my Sony A58 is processing, I miss another bolt.

>3 seconds
Isn't it too risky? I only used 8/16/32 and still missed perfect stuff due to my 4~ second gap between shots

Muh Fuji XT3 happily snaps 10 sec shot, 1 sec pause, for as many iterations as I'd like. Turn off the NR for instant save (no 'processing' wait).

Too simple with great results.

lately I've preferred 240 fps videos from my phone to D800 with a lightning trigger. still photos of daytime lightning usually doesn't look like anything and being this north - nighttime lightning is very rare thing to see.

there was lazily striking thunderstorm couple hundred kilometers away, I tried to to photograph some upper atmospheric lightning from it - got none. still, it was a nice warm summer night, so it wasn't a total waste of time.

here's a stack of about 600 images, where stars and satellites drew some trails and all the lightning in the cloud tops was caught.

When I used to live on Long Island Sound storms were pretty amazing. My go to was usually to compose, then set an intervalometer for 8 second exposures and forget about it.
