For general multicam = shoots RE:Match matches, as best it can, one sequence's overall color appear= ance to match that of another. For stereo pairs, RE:Ma= tch can further refine the overall color match by taking into account that t= he two views are captured at the same time with a relatively small distance between the views. In addition, RE:Match is al= so able to propagate color changes into areas that are present in only one v= iew. RE:Match can also make other details, such as reflections, specular hig= hlights, and lens flares be consistent between the two views.
