There was a link to an article posted in here a while back which explained how the Mju-II auto exposure system actually choses apertures.
Long story short: it's hardly ever f2.8. -
The mju 2 shoots at f2.8 unless it absolutely has to stop down. I guess 400 iso in daylight would get it to stop down (depends what it’s max shutter speed is - I can’t remember).
They focus using 3 area ‘boxes’ horizontally. According to Olympus you can prefocus (focus on something equal distance away, like you would use the spot meter) but I call bullshit because i’ve shot maybe a hundred of these ... and i’m pretty sure they don’t. They’re great, but not good for fast/street shooting.

I get the same with mine, using iso 400 film doesn't make a difference. It just always seems to prefer to focus on the background, which results in out of focus portraits.

MJUii owners, what speed film are you using? Mine is missing focus a lot, which I know is it probably shooting wide open most of the time. I'm about to run a roll of 400 in it to see if that sharpens things up a bit
