Subject: K10D in low light and magenta concrete
One of the PESOs I posted yesterday illustrates a frustration with the
K10D in low light: grey things in the shadows go magenta.

That curved blurry thing at the very bottom is a grey steel porch rail,
and the magenta-tinged flat surfaces beyond are grey concrete.
These were shot at ISO 1600 in RAW, and processed via Lightroom.
Generally I'm satisfied with how the camera handled the difficult
lighting, except for the shifts to magenta. A series of nocturnal shots
in Brugges last spring were ruined by the same phenomenon.
Apart from buying a K7 (which will have to wait a few months), is there a
solution?
Quite often, colour variations like this are caused by local ambient light
affecting things.
