Thanks to all. I hoped that the LCD screen quality was the goal for all
of my reproductions. :(

I bought a Sony TRV 260 after my last Digital 8 machine died hoping to
convert my tapes into DVDs. I was disappointed to find that the digital
video was considerably darker than what I thought I should get when
videoing inside. I then bought a Dell Optiplex 920 with a fast video card
thinking that my 737 Dell Dimension was not adequate for my needs.
I don't understand why the image that I see in the LCD screen on the
camera looks perfect and the computer image is 10-20% darker. I thought
that's why I did all of this stuff digitally. Do I have an output
problem (analog videos also look dark) or does the LCD screen give me a
false reading of what's being recorded?

Sorry to enter this late, but does the camera allow for a brightness and
contrast adjustment to the LCD screen? Maybe it is the LCD screen settings
that are giving false info.
