~: Slow Sync

Slow Sync can be used in I!! Night Scene mode, Auto- Multi Program or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode. Normally, the camera's shutter speed is automatically set to 1/90 sec. for flash photography. However, for shooting nighttime scenes, Slow Sync uses a slower shutter speed (down to maximum of 30 sec. , 1 sec. in I!! Night Scene

mode) to bring out background details using all of the available light.

I~ .

~: Rear-Curtam Sync

Rear-Curtain Sync can be used in Auto-Multi Program, Shutter-Priority Auto, Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode. Normally, the Speedlight fires at the end of the exposure, turning available light into a stream of light that follows the flash-illuminated moving subject. When Rear-Curtain Sync is set in Auto-Multi Program or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode, Slow Sync is

automatically set. (With an optional Speedlight S8-26, 25 and 24, set the Speedlight's sync mode selector to REAR.)
