Hi Boris: In this particular case I used spot metering, and I agree, sometimes the matrix metering does odd things, but for the most part I can't complain. I've grown quite fond of my little K10D. Given the feedback from others, I think my monitor is a little bright and that's what's giving me the impression of flash quality lighting in these pictures. Thanks, Boris. It helps :-) Cheers, Christine

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.

HTH.
