Thanks for all the information. We taped and most cameras had an exposure setting we could adjust for the "face" problem. We were able to test during the dress rehearsal. The some of the cameras had white balance adjustments, but the manuals lead me to think it was an adj. for "color" of lighting, which was constantly changing during the play. All incandesent, but colored with filters and different levels of intensity, etc. I have not been able to follow this thread or reply since my comp was in the shop getting the Superdrive replaced under warranty. I'll let you know how the footage turned out when we get a chance to review all the tapes. Russ Weitz
