I haven't been able to see the photos for some reason, but it sounds
like the second one shows significantly greater exposure even though
the camera was on Manual exposure and the settings hadn't changed.
I have seen this occasionally myself (one proper than one overexposed
exposure at the same settings) but almost always/only with the older
A and K/M lenses, so I'm inclined to believe john might be right.
Curiously, I more often see a tendency for the DS tends to
underexpose a bit with the A lenses compared to the F/FA series lenses.

seeing this just to be sure. The aperture is certainly working
fine now.
My concern isn't so much that the lens may be at fault so much as that
there may be some odd behavior that's an issue with these cameras.
It looks rather as though the aperture didn't stop down fully.
