Slow snyc flash can produce some very interesting results. I’ve never really sat down and figured out the best way to use it, but several of my photo-savvy friends swear by it.

“When shooting with a subject in low light situations you generally have two options; either to shoot with a flash or to shoot with a slow shutter speed.”

“Slow Sync Flash is a function found on many cameras that tells your camera to shoot with both a longer shutter speed as well as firing the flash. This means you get the best of both worlds above and can both get a relatively sharp shot of your main subject as well as get some ambient light from the background and foreground.”

“Some cameras allow you to access slow sync flash manually and set exposure length and flash strength but on many compact cameras there is a little less control given and it’s presented as an automatic shooting mode, often called ‘night mode’ or even ‘party mode’ where the camera selects the slower shutter speed and flash strength for you.”
