Easiest way to replicate cinegamma on the Z1 with footage from non-sony cam in Vegas?

Title says it all. And I need an answer ASAP as I need it for a film competition happening for the next 48 hours.

I use a Canon HV30, how do i post-process the gamma to match the Z1's cinegamma in Vegas 8?

Colour curves and experimentation, but I think you probably already know that.

I went for broke and just added a Levels FX filter and lowered the gamma to 0.8. The detailed textures unique to cinema gamma such as that distinct detailed texture look on rocks is showing out now that it has been applied. Looks even better in 1080p.

Wish me Luck, have to drop it off by 5pm tonight.

I usually play with the colour curves making a "S" to bring out the contrast, that might help. Good luck!
