Need to Match a 100A & 100B... What Scene file settings?

I have a two-camera shoot coming up and need to use a 100A and a 100B as the 2 cameras. Does anyone on the board have a scene file setting for each camera that will bring the two cameras as close to 'matching' together as possible?

I know the DVX100B has a few extra scene parameters that the 100A does not have--- that's why I'm asking.

Not looking for a ultr-technical 'shading' solution here, just need to get them both in the same genral neighborhood. We'll be shooting 24p, 4:3, timecode synced to TOD.

Thanks in advance peeps!
 
This would be useful info to have... We have a mix of 100A's and 100B's and sometimes they just have to be used together...
 
They should match real well out of the box when using the same scene settings (obviously avoid the gamma modes that the A model lacks). The A model is noisier. If you were desparate for a perfect match, you might add 6dB of gain on the B model to noise it up (sounds crazy)?
 
As Josh said, match settings that both cameras have and you can fine tune in post.

I've found that when matching non-dvx/hvx cameras, it helps to desaturate the color a bit.
