Using TV Mode on a Pentax K3

I use both a Pentax K5ii's and K3
I use the TV (Shutter Priority) rarely but when I did today on the K3 - I noticed that when I took the image the Shutter speed changed even thought I had it set on TV mode? I tried it with my K5ii's and it stayed on the same TV setting that I had set?

Any ideas why this is happening?

many thanks

You didn't bump it with a front or rear dial movement by mistake?

Have a look at Custom Menu Auto EV compensation. If activated, this might change your shutter speed when the range of apertures available cannot secure correct exposure.
Best regards, John

Many thanks John!
You're a star!
I did have it switched on ! Must have set it up for something earlier!

I have a K7 and K3 and have noticed with the latter that it seems easy to accidentally switch something on or off without realising, at least compared to the K7. Just saying.
