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.
