As I said... just like mine.  :-)  :-)

Your second try didn't hit the target neither :-)...

You can use 2nd curtain flash sync and bulb mode. It works as you would expect. At the 
end of the bulb exposure, the flash will go off  **and**  in the case of E-TTL flash, 
it will go off with the exposure settings read by the pre-flash at the beginning of 
the exposure. (It's an important thing to
remember, specially if things are getting closer or further during the B exposure )
I did some pseudo open-flash shots of things falling in water using this technique 
with the 50E triggered with the RC-1.
I never got exactly what I wanted but it was fun (and I'll try again ... for sure ;-)

Greetings,

Gerard.
