  What kind of film are you using? Most film will say on the packet "Daylight Balanced" meaning that true colour only turns out in sunlight.

Fluorescent lights turn out bluish, and normal lights (tungsten) turn out orangey. Never heard of greenish though. Except for a CCD (Digital camera) that is underexposed.

  The green tint is caused by flourescent lights...get an FL-D filter and stick it on whenever your scenes are lit by fluoro lights...8-)

  Can you use the FL-D filter with flash photography indoors?
