<Second Curtain Synchronization>
Second curtain synchronization is very useful for
shooting moving objects using slow-shutter
synchronization. In ordinary flash photography,
the flash is fired immediately after the first curtain
of the shutter has completed traveling (first
curtain synchronization). In combination with a
Contax flash having a second curtain
synchronization capability, the Contax G2 can
trigger the flash just before the second curtain
starts to travel (second curtain synchronization).

Behind the subject illuminated by ambient light is
captured like a flowing line so that its natural
movement is depicted clearly.
e The exposure is controlled in the same way as
in the case of ordinary flash photography (first
curtain synchronization).
