Setting the Flash Timing
(Synchro Settings)
Setting Description
1stCurtain The flash fires right after the exposure starts. Select this setting for normal
shooting.
2ndCurtain The flash fires right before the exposure finishes. Since the shot is first
exposed to the regular amount of light and then the flash fires right before
the exposure ends, this setting can be used to achieve more natural
expressions of light trails and motion blurs in situations such as when
shooting moving subjects at slow shutter speeds.
