I have an OM-1n. I understand that I can choose f-stops in between
the "click stopped" ones. That is, I can set the lens to something
between, say, f/5.6 and f/8, if it appears that the perfect exposure
is really around f/6.3. And when I take the photo, the lens diaphram
will stop down to around f/6.3 for making the exposure.
Can I do the same with shutter speeds?
Based on the behavior of the meter needle visible in the viewfinder,
it would seem so. But I'd appreciate confirmation that if my chosen
f-stop is f/11, and 1/250 is just a little too slow, but 1/500 is
just a little too fast, that I can turn the shutter speed ring to a
setting midway between these two speeds, and have the camera
actually use a shutter speed of around 1/350 or so.
