It looks rather as though the aperture didn't stop down fully. Sticky?

Subject: istDS Exposure Problems
I seem to recall some people saying that, when using manual exposure,
and/or manual focus lenses, the DS (and maybe the D as well) has had
some
exposure problems. Today the DS was sporting a K28/3.5 - as manual as
you
can get - and I was making a few exposures of some wooden bears on a
friend's deck. The camera was set at the same aperture, shutter speed,
and
ISO for both of these shots, made within a minute of each other. The
pics
were saved directly from an unadjusted PEF file. I think you should be
able to see the EXIF info with various software and viewers. IAC, both
were shot @ 200 ISO, 1/200 sec, and @ F8.0

What gives?
Well, the camera _knew_ that you had made one exposure for the shadows,
so it made the next one, which it _knew_ was the same subject from the
pattern on the sensor, for the highlights.
