Subject: Re: [Leica] intermediate shutter speeds

Your old F2 Nikon does NOT work between
speeds.  It is a mechanical shutter with distinct
speeds only.

The newer electronic shutter cameras (Nikon F3
and newer) can work on intermediate speeds
but only in auto-exposure mode.  There is no way
to set intermediate speeds manually.

Some of the even more recent models, with
digital shutter speed displays, can set intermediate
speeds.

The M6, being mechanical, of course can not do so.
