R6II owners: what are the fps options in e-shutter?

I know the headline spec is 40fps, but what slower options are there? I never shoot 30fps on my R7 (except in RAW burst mode, where I don’t have any other choice). I wish there were an option between 3fps and 15 fps, as even 15fps is usually too fast for me (I shoot a lot of action in EFCS at 8fps, but that rate isn’t available in e-shutter).

Re: R6II owners: what are the fps options in e-shutter?

Thanks. That prompted me to look up the spec sheet (I'd looked at the specifications listed on DPR and couldn't find what I was looking for) at Canon USA. Should have looked there before asking the question. One interesting thing I found was that e-shutter allows 1/16,000, when set in Tv or M. I didn't know that, as the specs on this site only mention 1/8000 as the maximum shutter speed.
