Could be. Obviously there's noise there. I see it more as blotching than banding. In any case, iIt doesn't take the form of the kind of vertical banding one can induce by shooting the inside of a lens cap and then pushing it.
My comments in regard to this were never meant to be defensive in regard to the photo. It's a poorly executed snapshot. I only posted it because I thought it was fun and of interest in terms of its subject matter. But I find the noise discussion interesting and, in some ways, important. I've always felt that the notion that the K10D had some kind of unique vertical banding problem was more the result of over scrutinizing photos than of any real defect.
