why no match color control?
I guess it could be argued that its a cheat, but then so is auto everything on a dSLR
Point is, it gets you in the ball park. You can choose to use it or ignore it. Why isn't it included?

There is an "auto-white" that equalizes the RGB peaks. I don't know anyone who would use it, and I don't know anyone who would use a "match" either, at least in professional circles.
There is a color picker in the scopes with up to 3 selections available. You could always park on the target, read the values, pull a still if you're trying to match across scenes, split the still store, and then stick-handle the values in.
I'm just wrapping a doc with tons of desert shots. No blacks. No whites. No neutrals. Beautiful shots. >Took a while to get the feel.

I must admit that it feels more rudimentary to have to drag out on the hue slider to find the match rather than finesse an auto match,

There are some odd ideas appearing in this thread.
Firstly, a color match feature is definitely missing in Color. An easy, fluid, efficient function in both AVID and FCP's 3 way corrector, it just makes for extra, needless work in Color. Obviously it's not going to do all the work, but it's a very useful basis.
The upshot of all this is that the fastest, cleanest and most creative way of grading I know is to do most things in the 3-way filter and only go to Color for fine adjustments and special effects.

I think, although I wish Color also had markers.
