For example, the Auto-S2 has an extra indicator for the aperture selected by the flashmatic system. The indicator is swung into place when a flash is attached, and this lever has a bearing on top of the lightmeter assembly. The Revue 400SE has EXACTLY the same lightmeter assembly, including two mounting holes needed for the Auto-S2 lever but unnecessary on the 400SE. The body die cast is somewhat different on each of these cameras but the interiors are almost identical. IMHO the Auto-S3 has the best build quality of these.
