Anyone else get a bad GL2

Can't say that we experience any color reproduction problems with our GL2s. Having said that, I always have the camera on full manual and always white balance. When doing indoor or low-light shooting, if you want accurate color, again, white balance with the camera light. Within a 7-10' perimeter, colors are usually brilliant and from my eye, accurate. Beyond that range, there is the expected red tint. At one wedding, I didn't white balance at the exact B&G location. The church had large windows, reflective hardwood floors and I ended up with to much of a yellow hue. BTW, over the holidays we watched our demo on a plasma TV and the images were stunning. You can shoot some amazing footage with a GL2...now if they would just give us a 1 lux, 2 XLR GL3 for under 3K...
