The flash fires right after the shutter opens,
regardless of the shutter speed. Usually, the 1st-
curtain is used when shooting.
The flash fires right before the shutter closes.
Compared with the 1stcurtain, the flash fires later
and allows you to shoot images in which, for
example, a car's taillights seem to trail off behind.
