Just give a bit for the revs to drop to the appropriate level (if you have rev match they'll never fall below the where they're supposed to be) and you'll be smooth as butter. Don't forget to give it a bit of gas as you ease out the clutch as well.
totally true and right on target, i've seen alot of threads with people struggling with smooth shifts from 1st-2nd. I was struggling myself in the beginning, but now i learn to give her some time and then she'll treat u rite. i wished nissan had program the car to have the revs drop down faster just like a car without the synchro rev when depressing the clutch on first gear for a smooth shift without waiting. I still give props to nissan though for the world's first synchro rev.
