<3. Second curtain synchronization>
Taking photographs with second curtain synchronization is effective for
shooting moving subjects using slow synchronization.
Normally with flash photography the flash is emitted directly after the shutter’s
front curtain has finished traveling (first curtain synchronization).
When an internal flash or a Contax flash equipped with the second curtain syn-
chronization function is used, the flash can be triggered immediately before the
shutter's rear curtain begins movement (second curtain synchronization).
The “ghost” movement of the subject thus appears more natural.
