Very common if it's the late version
with the 49mm filter threads.
Can be "cleared up" with prolonged exposure
to UV light.
I've currently got one in such a process
myself.

Subject: 35mm f/2 Super Takumar
Hi all,
Today I mounted up my 35mm f/2 Super Takumar (M42) and noticed for the
first time that the viewfinder image was very warm. Tending towards the
yellow. I can't see any discoloration on any of the lens elements, but in
comparison with other lenses, like the 35mm f/3.5, the image is decidedly
more warm. Is this common for the f/2 or just an abnormality in my
example?
thanks,
paul
