Of course, think white balance.

Open that darn manual and you might learn something. Tungsten lighting has a yellow cast to it, our brain filters it out but the camera does not.

Set your color balance to "Auto", "Tungsten", "Indoor" or something that will give you the proper white balance.

The yellow comes from the yellowish light given off by incandescent light bulbs. Here's what to do:

1. Set the White Balance to Auto or A.

2. If you're still getting yellow pix, set the White Balance to the "little round light bulb" icon.

Hope this helps.

You need to look up " white balance" in your cameras manual. Right now you have your cameras white balance set to outdoor lighting. As others have mentioned outdoor light has a bluish tint to it, whereas indoor light from incandescent lights produce a yellow glow (flourescent lights produce a greenish blue tint). Although our brains can adjust for these color differences, a camera cannot unless you tell it what kind of lighting conditions you are shooting in. Hope this helps

your camera is set to daylight - 5600k, the yellow indoor tungten lighting is 3200k

3 methods:

1. use auto white balance

2. set white balance to 3200k indoors under yellow/tungsten light

3. do a white balance reading of a peice of white paper - see your manual book

the third method is best - particuarly if theres mixed lighting like fluros or daylight from a window

Yet another question that could have been avoided by simply READING & STUDYING the Owner's Manual.

My digital did it until I changed it to automatic white balance - you can try that?
