I found there is still a series of 3 bad shots on the card. The first
is completely dark, the next has a sliver of normal exposure at the
top, and the 3rd has a wider sliver at the top that is correctly
exposed. Does this indicate it is a blade-type problem? I checked the
EXIF of the files and saw no difference.
That sounds more like a shutter issue than an aperture setting issue in
the lens.
Anyone know if the shutter goes up and down or side to side on a K10D?
If the sliver doesn't parallel the shutter direction, it pretty much has
to be a sensor issue of some kind.

It's the standard vertical travel shutter. Pentax hasn't used a
horizontal travel shutter since the LX.
