Since tungsten light is mostly red and yellow, all pics you take under it
will be yellow.  Normal.

| Most of the consumer print films are designed to reduce the warming effect
| of incandescent lighting, though not eliminate it. I think the Kodak
Portra
| line has some of this built in.
|
| The other pro Kodak color negative film, Supra, does not have this built
and
| will be yellower than consumer and Portra under incandescent lights.
Supra,
| a replacement for the PJ films, has as one of it's design goals 'color
| accuracy', so doesn't try to cancel out the warmer lighting effects.
