Assuming it was a #3, I expected a 62mm retaining ring to fit. Since it was too wide, I assumed the shutter was a #3s. Checking on EBAY, sellers list the retaining ring as 60.5mm -- and that's what my crude measurement confirms.
I looked at S.K.Grimes, and while they have details for the #3 (and even the #2), I don't see any specs for the #3s.
And since Fuji never used the #3s, there is nothing in their literature either.
No wonder people get confused.
