Back pain when lifting?

I had a problem develop when deadlifting where I get a pain in my lower back/hip momentarily after dropping the weight. It doesn't make any difference how much weight I lift, if I drop it or set it down easily.

The pain lasts about 2-3 seconds and then it's gone. It isn't limited to deadlifts, any similar lifts do the same thing, snatch, cleans etc. I have little pain afterwords or the next day, beyond what I think should be expected.

Any idea what causes this or what I could do to stop it?

    I should rephrase. I expect Some muscle soreness the next day, I am lifting weights after all.
