I wanted to take some pictures of a new wall unit I'd finished installing in 
the dining room.  I decided to light it up with the internal (halogen) lights 
and do a long exposure on a tripod so everything would come out crisp.

Set up the K7 on a tripod, into Av mode with the aperture cranked down to 
f/11... took a shot and the preview was entirely GREEN (this image is from the 
processed RAW file - which was obviously no less green).

This is just a 4-8 second exposure under tungsten lighting.  Shouldn't be green.

I took about 7 or 8 images which all came out the same way.  Turning the camera 
off and on between exposures... scratching my head....

Finally I popped up the BIF, took a quick shot which looked normal.

Back onto the tripod, it worked perfectly:

So.. what the HECK was going on there?  This was a freshly-formatted card with 
a fully-charged battery.  Confusing to say the least.
