Slow shutter speed + flash

  • play around with anywhere from 1/30 to 1/60 shutter speed

  • I would go to a higher aperture, maybe 2.8 up to 5.6, but again, play around before the shoot

  • You can do it with an in-body flash but a hotshoe flash will give better results

This thread is full of technical answers on curtain sync, and I would generally put those comments on the back burner until you're comfortable with the basics of what's happening here. This image is achievable on any camera that allows manual shutter speed and a flash.

You're slowing the shutter speed to blur the lights and shooting the flash to freeze the initial subject.
