Greenish tint on TM900 at DVinfo.net

Hi

Anyone else have this problem? Almost every clip filmed with my TM900 need color correction, CC. No matter if I use White Balance presets or do manual WB, the colors are never correct. You can see an example on the pictures. There always seem to bee too much green and sometimes also too much blue. Does anyone have the same experience from the TM900?

I have also a Canon HV20 and a Canon XH-A1 and they both are much more accurate in color reproduction. Is this a phenomenon for the Panasonic SD/TM900 or is it my camcorder?

Edit: The upper picture is direct from the camcorder, the picture below is collor corrected.

Regards,

/Bo

What are you setting the manual WB against? Use a proper white balance card that can fill the frame. There's pocketable ones and bigger ones for distance shots.
