K-3

I recently shot some test stuff on a k-3 camera I bought. The film came back with a yellowish tint, and I was wondering what I should do so that I can avoid the yellowish tint next time I shoot.

Thanks,
Jacob
 
This was a yellowish-tint in a print you made? Are you sure it's in the original photography and not mistimed / mistransferred?
 
It was in the work print... I did a simple transfer to video and reversed it in the computer.
 
Oh, and the viewfinder on the camera itself, when you look through it, it has a yellowish tint as well.
 
If your viewfinder also shows a yellow tint, probably the lens is old and the optics / coatings have shifted to yellow. Should be simple to color-correct a yellow cast out though. Or use a pale blue filter on the lens. Or get a newer lens.
 
Hi again. I was thinking that a new lens would probably be the best, but I do not know where to start looking, and I could not find any place that sells the same lens. Are there any lenses that would work with the k-3 that you could recommend? Thanks a lot.
