HV20 presets to match Vivid RGB in Xh-a1

[gengisPhat]

So I got an hv20 to use as a deck for my xh-a1 and am really happy as far as that goes. I have been playing around with the camera and it is a great little tool (still trying to work out the exposure thing but that is another time)

I wouldn't mind being able to use the hv20 as a backup/3rd camera option for inserts and things like that. I generally shoot using the Vivid RGB preset and was curious if anyone had been able to mimic that with the hv20 presets.

Also buy.com has the hv20 for 717 with shipping.

Hope this isn't against the forum rules.

Color correct in post to match the images. Ultimately you should be shooting with a pretty flat image anyway -- that will give you the best footage to work with in post for achieving the best overall picture. Evenly exposed lower contrast not overly saturated images give you much more latitude to work with, so it can be pushed futher without color clipping.

I would love to shoot for high dynamic range and color correct in post but sometimes time constraints prevent that.
