Slight different WB and exp. in 3 seq shot

 3 shots very close in between as you can see.
 

Seems like the WB is slighly different on 1st and 2nd. Is this because I had the WB on AUTO and it selected slightly warmer tone for some reason on the second shot?

Also, the third shot is slightly darker exposed for some reason. Is this normal?

Hmmm, I suspect you may have auto-bracketing turned on, maybe? It's the 'BKT' on the dial that surrounds the ISO knob.

 

If that's the case, then what you're actually seeing isn't a difference in white balance, so much as colour saturation with the 2nd image being 1/3 stop over exposed and the 3rd image 1/3 stop under exposed.

 

Did you mean to take three pictures in rapid succession? Because that's how the auto-bracketing works.

I did not shot in bkt mode. I shot in single shot or CL. Hit the shutter button 3 times. Edited by Hermelin

Yes, exactly! WB on Auto changes at its will, depending on the framed scene. If you don't want this to happen, you have to fix the WB value. This is also recommended for timelapses, for example.

Filip, there is a light bulb shining in the upper left corner. Only a tiny bit of it is in the first picture, almost a half of it is in the second, somewhat less than a half in the third. Maybe it could have played a role in this ? Also, as you moved the frame slightly, there is a change in the areas with different colours, e.g. the dark green part on the right gets much thinner in the second and third picture.

It's not a big deal.  This could be caused by anything that happened behind or beside you.  A slight dip or rise in the ambient light temperature, someone walking by with a white, black coat, there are so many options.

 

What would I do if this happened to me (and it has):  Pick the image I like best, delete the others, and continue having fun and shooting.
