closes when you take a picture of a moving subject (such as a car) using the flash with a

slow shutter speed.

[1ST]

1st curtain sync is the normal recording method when

using the flash.

[2ND]

The light source is captured in back of the subject and

this produces a picture that is vibrant and lively.

If you set to [2ND], [2nd] will be displayed in the flash icon on the screen.

When a fast shutter speed is set, the [Flash Synchro] effect may not be sufficiently achieved.

When [2ND] is set, you cannot set the flash setting to [ ] or [ ].
