4. OEV setting + 1.7It looks like the ISO chosen by your camera is too high. You'll have to set the ISO manually to no more than 100, and be prepared for a slow shutter speed. Tripod, anyone?

Incidentally, your image files are "double bracketed," which is why you have extra "" displayed around your posted photos. To post a hosted image here, you have only to either type out the "[IMG]", "" brackets yourself, and place the image URL between the ] and the [, or let the site create the brackets by clicking on the image icon above. Don't do both.
