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.
