Developed for the overseas market, this was a II F with X-sync for Speedlites. Like the IV Sb2, the camera had a shutter speed index mark on the fast shutter speed dial to indicate the shutter speed after the shutter was released. On the dial, the shutter speeds increased in two-fold increments. However, unlike the IV Sb2, the II S’s film advance knob did not have a reminder for the film roll’s number of obtainable exposures.
