Thanks for putting my mind at rest everyone.

Thanks for the replies; it's probably just me then.
Here's a shot manually set:

And here's the AWB equivalent:

This is normal then?

Hello all
I've recently received my *ist DL back from Pentax; it was sent off for a repair as the camera wasn't using the batteries properly (seems to be okay now).
Whilst taking some test shots the other night I noticed that using AWB in my tungsten lit bedroom gave very yellowish results. I seem to remember AWB doing a better job before it was sent off.
Here are four shots of my lamp shade:
AWB

Daylight

Tungsten

Manually set

I'll post a shot of some objects lit by my light later on tonight, as this kind of shot was what initially surprised me.
Would you say there is a problem, or am I imagining things?
Many thanks.
