REAR-CURTAINSYNC—To create a natural-looking stream of light

Normally in flash synchronization, the Speedlight fires at the beginning of the exposure. When the shutter speed is slow, the result is a streaking light pattern in front of the subject.

When Rear-Curtain Sync is set, the Speedlight fires at the end of the exposure, turning available light into a stream of light that follows the flash-illuminated moving subject.

Since Rear-Curtain Sync is especially effective at a slow shutter speed, Slow Sync is automatically set at the same time that Rear-Curtain Sync is set in Programmed Auto or Aperture- Priority Auto exposure mode. To set a specific shutter speed, set the F5 to Shutter-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode.

When using the SB-26, SB-25 or SB-24, note that the Rear- Curtain Sync setting on the camera body is ignored. You must set the Speedlight unit itself for Rear-Curtain Sync.
