[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 11149, member: 654"] The D70s has shutter speeds from 30 seconds up to 1/8000 as well as bulb for timed exposures. The shutter speed is displayed in the control panel on its top left. The seconds use a " indicator, such as 1" represents one second and a 2" is two seconds and so on. A fraction of a second does not have the " indicator. So the number 5 is 1/5 second and the number 25 is 1/25 second. The 1 and the fraction slash / is left out for simplicity. You also find the shutter speed in the viewfinder on the bottom left and the f/stop right next to it on its right. So to answer your question, 1/4 is one quarter second and not 1/250 second. If you are seeing the numbers you have listed above in the monitor "menu" then they are probably being used to explain a function other than the actual shutter speed as found in the control panel or viewfinder. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
