With older cameras the more light the better is the rule of thumb I go by. I too have had nice white balancing for CCD cameras with 48" fluorescent lights. How does it do if you shoot a SMPTE color chart? Is there a color that shows up more heavy than others?

To me the lighting in this picture looks a bit low for good color reproduction from a camera this age. I would aim for at least 200 to 300 lux minimum if I wanted accurate color. Judging by how bright the monitor is in the background this was shot at below 100 lux.

There's a lot of other factors that come in to play as well. Colors show up much brighter and warmer on CRT and whites show up whiter compared to LCD. Also LED lighting was not around back when this camera was made.
