Hi I have purchased my first digital camera recently, a used D100. I'm using the 35mm f2 Ai-s lens and the 18-70 3.5 zoom. I'm finding that when I take pictures outdoors (in natural light ) I get a blue tint on my photos. Especially when it's overcast. It does not seem to happen as much indoors with artificial light. It's fixable in Lightroom, but is this normal? would a different camera have the same problem?

I'm shooting Fine Jpeg with color mode I, but changing the color mode seemd to have little effect.
 
White Balance looks like it is set to "Incandescent" or "Tungsten" value...needs to be on the little "sunshine icon", or around 5100 degrees Kelvin.
 
Looking at the image EXIF data you have the camera set to manual white balance.

Either do as Derrel suggested or put it in auto White Balance.
 
Perfect, That was it. Thanks. Never had this option on my 35mm camera.;)
 
Were not in film land anymore Toto !

That's because white balance was predetermined by the film you use or you had to use a physical filter in front of the lens.
