hmmm.
maybe set the white balance of both cameras to some fixed temp. (not auto)
the more you just 'keep it rolling', the easier it will be to sync sound to image in post.
...have fun!

Do you recommend a custom WB, (white or grey card) or just set to a temp that looks good?

well i really don't know, i suppose it might depend on how well the cameras match.
i'd say just try to get them to look decent right then and there and hopefully not need to colour correct later.
but that's just my opinion.

60D and 5DII should match pretty well, I hope. Should be correctable in PP anyway - thanks.

Shoot went well - material from 5D and 60D match up perfectly, and everything looks clean as we were able to shoot mostly at 640 ISO, 1/60, f4, 30fps. We did seven takes, most with two cameras.

Sound was recorded with Zoom H4N and H2 as backup. Levels ended up a quite low, but I'm hoping I can raise levels in post. There was lots of truck noise, I'm hoping I can pick and choose from different takes and maybe eliminate traffic noise.

Thanks for everyone's help - I will post this short when finished.
