[. . . ] Flash shooting in dim light or at night at a fast shutter speed often results in a flash-illuminated subject against a dark background. Using a slower shutter speed with the flash brings out the background details in the picture. Use of a slow shutter speed with RearCurtain Sync is particularly effective for illustrating the movement of a stream of light. The F65/F65D's Slow Sync mode extends the automatically controlled shutter speed range down to 30 sec. [. . . ]
