1st-curtain regardless of the shutter speed. Usually, the 1st-

The flash fires right before the shutter closes,
regardless of the shutter speed. Compared with the
2nd-curtain 1st-curtain, the flash fires later and this allows you to
shoot images in which, for example, a car's rear
lamps seem to trail off behind.
