matching HVX/A1 looks

[t-h-e-w-h-o]

I made this post in the HVX technical section as well. Sorry for the semi-dupe, but maybe someone who frequents in this part of the forum would know as well.

I will be shooting an indoor concert (probably low light conditions) this up coming thursday with the Canon A1 and the HVX200. Does anyone know how to match the settings so the images look as close as possible?

Thanks

I would suggest you shoot both cameras as flat as possible and do your matching in post. Trying to match the in-camera looks in a low light situation is asking for trouble.

ok, thats what i was planning on. hum. Sounds like the plan, thanks man.

go to the presets thread and get your hands on disjecta's vividrgb preset. Load that into your A1 and shoot with that. Set your HVX color settings to flat 0 on all.

Matching in post is much easier this way I have found.
