Good video camera for fireworks?

Hoping someone can recommend a good video camera for fireworks, something that can sit on a tripod, a dedicated vid camera. I currently have a Canon Vixia, with a "fireworks mode" built in, but the colors are washed out and just suck. I don't want to spend much more than say 500 bucks. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Brad take it off fireworks mode. You will probably get a lot of SX150 and Gopro suggestions.

I am a big fan of SLR's, Nikon in particular but they only write for 10 minutes or so to the card. I have been running 2 side by side for shows and BULB for stills of individual shells. The lenses are bright and there is no distortion like Go-Pro from the fish-eye lens. Just a thought.

I second this. An entry level or mid range dslr with a good lens is the better option.
