Hi!If you have a yellow problem,the only solu- tion is to ad
some blue or to try the only test you didn't try,tungten film in
daylight which should be very blue as a result.It's sure that if
there's a yellow filter in the back of the lens,(like Jim said)you
should start there.Hope this useful.Gil.a Crown Graphic 4x5 with a
127mm/f:4.7 lens made
: by Kodak for Graflex, c. late 40's. It works great with
: b/w film. The problem is that I cannot get an accurate
: color balance when shooting chrome film with this
: camera. I have tried:
: 1)daylight film in daylight
: 2)daylight film in studio with tungsten light and an 80A
: filter
: 3)tungsten balanced film with tungsten light
: Each time I get the same result: a harsh yellow overall
: cast and slight underexposure(even though I'm using a
: very accurate meter that usually gives me no problems
: with exposure). I've tried all of the rules of color-
: correcting that I'm aware of. I've also had the same
: problem using color print film with this camera. Has
: anyone else had this problem, and does anyone know how
: to resolve it?
: Thanks,
