I have just picked my old Mju II (last time I was using it was two years ago) and noticed a strange issue - even in the good light the orange flash indicator is almost always on (and flash fires). It happens both without the film loaded as well as with the film (I tried iso 200 and iso 400). I probably need to shoot the roll, develop and see if it overexposes, but this is very strange. I measured the light with the external meter - the flash indicator goes on in the conditions where the meter shows 1/125 at f8. How can it be? It seems to me that when I manually set the flash off then it uses correct aperture/speed (it does not go to slow speed mode - I tested this with the back open). Any clues what's this behaviour?
