I had no issues, but that is because I scan the film myself, and set the WB for each unique film type (saving it as a preset). I do that by using the WB dropper in a piece of the unexposed film.
It sounds like your lab did not accommodate for this film and just used a generic setting that they use for Kodak/Fuji etc.


That's probably right, although I've heard complaints from others about colors that seem far off. Here are a few examples of lab-scanned shots of Aerocolor IV:

The gravel path in this one was actually grey in real life but came out brick-red in their scan:

And this one has an orange cast that I see in many of the scans:

This one came out better, but I think I did some color-correction in post:

Yeah, the lab did not use a scanning conversion setting for the correct film. They most probably don't even have one.
If you want you can send me a film strip and I will scan/convert it w my Aerochrome IV preset.
