Canon HF S10 white balance kelvin values

[lt-cartman]

Hi Toolman here, just wondering dows anyone out there know what the kelvin values are for the different white balance presets on the canon HFS10 I need to color match this canera with my panasonic gh1 and when i choose say the cloudy settings on both cameras they are way off (my panasonic had a K settings where once can enter in kelvin values say 5200 etc. If i can find out the kelvin values i can just enter these into the panasonic gh1 and get the same white balance on both cameras thanks in advance Toolman

No idea; I have an HF R10, and I don't remember seeing anything like that in the manual.

What you could do is contact Canon directly: http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/standard_display/support or http://usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/standard_display/contact_us_consumer , there's probably someone there that can help.

Or, is there a way to monitor both cameras at the same time, and manually/by-sight adjust the Panasonic to match the Canon?
Also, maybe this thread would be some help (??)-- http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?114523-How-to-check-Kelvin-value-for-a-particular-light
