Advice on Dynax 500si

[Paperkurt]

Hey pple,
Juz have a question after playing with my dynax 500si.
When u use e built in flash, the syn speed is 1/90 and u cannot
go any faster but u can go for a slow shutter speed.
So my question is when at 1/90 shutter and at 1/60 shutter speed
does the flash fire at the same time as the shutter or it fires at its flash
at its sync speed thanx....

Flash actually last much shorter the the shutter. Max syn speed indicates the max shutter speed that the camera can ensure the flash is fired when the shutter window is opened fully.

Blue means the shutter is opening and red means it's closing. yellow means that the exposure is being capture.
