Matching footage from different cameras

I'm putting together a video with three sources, Canon HV20, Canon SX260, and Canon T3i. The color on each is noticeably different, but the HV20 footage is very different, dull, less saturated, skin tone is different. And the SX260 footage seems over saturated. HV20 looks 'best' except dull. SX260 looks like what I recognize as "iPhone" video, looking enhanced instead of neutral. (Reminds me, need to look and see whether HV20 has a 'cinema' mode and did I put it in cinema mode accidentally.)

Is there any way to match the clips to each other with Vegas studio? I'm imagining a tool that looks at all the clips and matches them with a minimizing function that raise contrast on one clip, reduce saturation on another, tweak the hue, and so forth to find a middle ground.

Thanks for any advice.
