Colour matching to other Sony models at DVinfo.net

Does anyone have any experience yet of matching EX1 footage to a Z1? I have problems matching some colours, particularly yellows, between a Z1E and an A1E. I'm wondering whether it is a CCD versus CMOS thing?

When the EX1 is released you will find that it has full colour matrix controls, black gamma adjustments, knee slope, knee point, Step Gamma etc settings that are all identical in scope to the full size cameras. This should allow you to match the EX1 to any camera you desire.

I have experienced issues trying to match my HC1 to my Z1. From my experience with the EX1 it is a very good match (if you want it to be) for the Z1 and F350.
