yes, what does the source tape look like ? might be nothing wrong with what you are doing and the source itself is messed up which is really common. 

it sounds like upressed 4:3 SD in which case try NTSC / 609 16-235. given its probably SD, and been thru an  analog generation or two who knows whats been really done to it. so you may need to apply some curves to even it out and make it look ok.

A client has sent me a file and they are not colorspace savvy. It’s a ProRes 422 HQ file that was captured off D5 tape into Final Cut as “YUV-10” via Kona 3 card SDI.

ProRes is not tagged and having difficult figuring out best colorspace for it. Rec709 and sRGB looked a little washed out. Rec709 (16-235) looks better in midtones but gamma a bit dark. P3 looks richer but a little darker still.
 
File is pillarboxed and pillarboxes are RGB 0,0,0.
 
Can’t find much help via google – any ideas?
