 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.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
