Fine adjustment will be done w/ f-stop.  You can set it to "f-8 and a
half" to get that extra precision necessary when shooting slides.

 Say I'm at f8, and the 'perfect' amount of time to leave the shutter
open
for is 1/400th of a second. There's no way to get that -- I can get
1/500th
or 1/250th, but not 1/400th, because the speed dial doesn't have that
option. If it happens that the right speed is on the dial, that's great,
but
it seems like the majority of the time it'll be between two settings. 

 Presumably this is something I don't worry about, and just try and get
as
close as I can?
