Matching A7S and FS700

So I have seen people mention that it is tricky to match A7S and FS700 footage. I have not yet had time to experiment with this on my cameras, perhaps this weekend, but I wanted to see what settings, luts, etc.. others have used to help facilitate this. I have been doing some google searching, but really haven't found any good workflows.

Ideally I would love to find, or build a couple of luts for each camera. Also, it would be interesting to know what PP settings, if any, help bring these cameras closer together.
 
I've got my FS700 shooting in Cinegamma 4 (default PP7, I think), and PP6 with the A7S (also Cinegamma 4, I think.)

They match pretty closely overall. The main difference is that the greens are more saturated on the A7s - and even then, you only notice it once you pump up that contrast and saturation. I've got a Lumetri preset in Premiere with the greens muted on the saturation wheel, and once I throw that on they are pretty much identical.
 
When shooting internal on both (which is usually when I do multicam) I also use Cine4 on both.
But ive found that the reds are very different, the ones on the A7S are warmer with no magenta in them while the FS700's reds have a lot of magenta in them...
