Trailing curtain sync discharges the flash immediately before the shutter
curtain closes. When shooting moving objects with a slow shutter speed,
Trailing curtain sync and Slow-speed sync produce different effects
depending on when the flash is discharged.
For example, when shooting a moving car with Trailing curtain sync,
trailing light is captured while the shutter is open and the flash captures the
car when the shutter is released. Therefore, a picture that looks as if light
is trailing is captured.
