Photo Forum / Digital Photography / DSLR Cameras / September 2006Flash - 2nd curtain synch - 300D & EX420 - How?
Hi, Despite all I have read about the theory, I'm still unsure how exactly to set-up my camera. Can someone please advise how I should configure my 300D to achieve this effect either with speedlite or on-board flash. Thanks in anticipation Michael > Hi, > Despite all I have read about the theory, I'm still unsure how exactly > to set-up my camera.

It's set in a custom function. "The Wasia hack" used to be all the rage, but what is the 3rd party firmware folks finally settled on for the 300D? I recall there were some competitors to Wasia but lost track of the story.

From what I've heard, Undutchables is a little bit more enhanced than Wasia. Go to http://www.chrislongley.com/firmware.htm for both hacks.

The camera can't do it. Colin D.

Are you using the latest version of Undutchable's (0.2.3)? According to the pdf enclosed in the zip, custom function 15 enables 2nd curtain sync. As I don't have a 300D myself, I cannot test it for myself, so if you are actually using the latest version, I'll take your word for it.

If you look at that custom function list in that .pdf you will see that some functions have a tick beside them - they are the usable ones. Those with a small 'x' do not function even though they are in the CF table, and 2nd curtain sync has an 'x'. I was a bit bummed out about it as well, as I wanted to do some slow exposures with 2nd curtain sync. I'll have to see about getting a 30D, I guess. Colin D.

Oops... I should have read a little bit better. Thanks anyway for taking the time to explain something I should have read.
