Just looking through some RAW files in Lightroom taken at the weekend, and I have 2 shots with a strange banding effect as per the attached photo.
Hopefully it's easy to see, I've processed the shot slightly in camera RAW to try and make the problem more obvious.
Both the 2 shots with the problem were taken in a sequence of about 14 images that day, both were around 15 second long exposures and shots with shorter and longer exposure times were unaffected (varying from 1/8 sec to over 70 seconds).
The only similarity was that they were both in portrait mode and at 17mm on a Sigma 17-70 lens at ISO 200
For the record I always block the viewfinder on long exposures and there was no direct light behind me anyway.
I did use a lens hood and a ND filter but i've never had this problem before and the pictures taken after were fine too.
I use a Pentax KS1 and have the Slow Shutter Speed NR option to ON.
The shots were in RAW mode.
Anyone have any clues ?
Thanks
Robin
