gl2 and gl1 match	Can't Post

I'm having problems adjusting the GL1 and GL2 to match. I'm running each through a mixer. With both set on the same object, both at the same location and same distance and same lighting the GL2's picture is slightly a sort of off color as opposed to the GL1. The GL2 sort of has a blueish sort of green tent. It's not a big difference but a noticable one to me. It's under mostly florsent lighting. I've tried the automatic white balance on a white object which seems to help a little. The GL2 also isn't quite as sharp as the GL1. Compairing the pictures I can tell the difference in picture sharpness on an object.

Any suggestions on getting the two camera's to match?

Thanks... Gary

Try adjusting the color phase and sharpness (from the menu) on one or both of the camcorders to get a better match.

I made adjustments as you suggested on the GL2 and it is matching pretty close to the GL1 now... thanks... Gary
