I make customized profiles for each of my cameras (X-Trans III and IV) in ACR/Lightroom so that the color is the way I like it right from the get-go at import, and that the color always closely matches between cameras without me having to fiddle about every time.

I do have a datacolor target - is that the sort of thing you use?

I have an x-rite color checker, but just downloading the appropriate test scene shot RAW files for your different cameras from DPReview or IR and tweaking the available color profiles (Fuji sims or otherwise) so they match and saving them as new custom profiles to use going forward will get well within the ballpark (you need to do this in ACR, but the new profiles will show up automatically in LR as well).
