Different exposure TV and AV mode

Hi everybody

Today i was taking some snaps of my running dog, obviously i was using TV mode, then i decided switch to AV and right then i notice how the same scene is more wash out.
Finally decided to run a quick test.
take a look

Both:
-1/100 s
-f 2.4
-iso 800
-center focus
-Daylight WB


TV mode



AV mode (same settings)


any thoughts?

Just a variation in exposure. I get the same thing from time to time - in the same mode...

in my case consistenly underexpose about 1/3 stop when using TV mode, and even worst if the sensibility steps are seted as 1 stop.
Anyway, is not a big deal. i took some nice pictures this christmas

I was shooting in Av today with a new mirror lens, and my K20D was shooting normally at around 1/180 sec, and then did few at 1/2000 and 1/3000, for no reason I could see...

At least this taught me to appreciate more "underexposed" images.
