capture is darker than original
Posted by Tad Newberry on February 2, 2006 at 8:38 pmany reason why this would be so? whether i capture from my Beta deck in either the native DV-NTSC codec or the Blackmagic NTSC-DV codec, the results are the same. maybe i should be posting this to the Blackmagic forum?
thanks for helping out a bonehead,

February 2, 2006 at 8:43 pmLooking at all of this on an external NTSC monitor? Or judging with your computer monitors?
NEVER judge with your computer monitors. They do not show a true representation of the image.

We had this discussion few days ago about a black-burst generator to get rid of the roll.
Get yourself a Horita BSG-50 that’s right a BSG-50.
You might want to think about a new/used Sony professional monitor as well.
