No. I saw the same problem on RAW images and the non-bright setting.

If you look at photo 3, that one is about exposed right, maybe a bit overexposed, and it still has the color problem. It isn't as pronounced, but it is there. Your meter thinks everything is 18% gray. Meters are > dumb. Photographers have to provide the intelligence.

Not a problem, in general. I just got this camera from Pentax USA as a replacement for my first k10D. Weather has not allowed a lot of outside work. I did not want the flash to be a possible source of this color problem, so do not want to take any pictures inside right now. It is just my opinion, but I should think that this should never happen, regardless of the set-up. Even in photo 3 and 10, which is somewhat normal (1/10s, f13, 400), the problem is there. The first set of photos I noticed this did not have any strong white objects, a lot of green carpet and brown blanket chest. It would help me if I knew if anyone else has a camera that acts this way.
