Christine, to your question. IMHO, if you used the matrix metering, you used a black magic performed by wondrous wizards of Pentax software team. To me both pictures look ok (on the screen), but in general I find the matrix metering of K10D to be not exactly reliable. Say, it is reliable most of the time, but not always. I tend to (chimp) review my photos all the time mostly in order to examine the histogram.
