Shutter speed

[LSA]

Hi,
I own the Olympus OMDE 10 iii and have watched all your videos and find them very helpful. I am having trouble understanding the shutter speed. Mine ranges from 4000 to 60" but there is not an option for 1/2 or any other fraction speeds they are only listed as whole numbers. Does this make sense? I am not sure how to adjust this ?

Thanks for you time

Numbers over 1 second shutter speed are fractions. So 4000 is really 1/4000. 100 is 1/100, 2 is 1/2, and so on. If you see 1.6, that is 1/1.6 or 0.6 seconds.

When you see a " next to the number, then you are at 1 second or slower. So 1" = 1 second, 1.6" = 1.6 seconds, 60" = 60 seconds.

Hope that makes sense.
