Chris,

Just to make sure: don't just go by my comment. :)  RB said s/he is 
extremely impressed with the ZR-60 and said something about manual 
white balance for indoor shooting - I'm going to try that tonight to 
see how much of a difference it makes.  I've always just used the 
automatic settings, and possibly setting the white balance for indoor 
shooting will really help out.
