What's the deal with NIKON YELLOW CAST - HELP!

Mar 19, 2012

O.K. so I am planning on switching from Canon to Nikon, I am heavily invested in Canon glass, but based on the D800 images I have been seeing, I am planning on making the switch and selling all my gear.

The one thing that really upsets me about nikon is the weird yellow cast I find in almost all nikon images. It makes the photos look nasty, and I don't want to have to "suck yellow" out of every photo.

Here is the example of the yucky yellow, and my quick color correction.

Is there an easy fix for the yellow, or is this going to be an ongoing problem?

Also what lenses would you recommend with a D800 for around 4 grand?
