compensation with the camera’s

Shutter Sync. You can switch the timing at which
the flash fires.
–
1st-curtain The flash fires right after the shutter
opens, regardless of the shutter
speed. Usually, the 1st-curtain is
used when shooting.
2nd-curtain The flash fires right before the
shutter closes. Compared with the
1st-curtain, the flash fires later and
allows you to shoot images in
which, for example, a car’s taillights
seem to trail off behind.
