I think I know what caused it - but still not sure why my pentax did it this way.
I was shooting in aperture priority mode without flash.
Shot1
------
Aperture - 4.5 (I set this)
Speed - 1/125 s (Auto)
ISO - 480 (Auto)
Shot 2
--------
Aperture - 9 (I Set it)
Speed - 1/125 s (Remained same, I had expected it to change)
ISO - 600+ (Auto. I had not expected this to change)
I guess the change in ISO was not enough to compensate for the reduction in aperture, so shot 2 came out darker.
I can now understand why my 2nd shot came out darker but is the camera behavior expected ? Essentially, how do I predict my camera behavior ?
When I tried to attach my pics, all I got was some text with a URL as below. Sorry.
