Has anyone else noticed that the government channel 16 is really red? I guess I don't know if it's my cable connection or the cities equipment, but if it's the cities equipment then maybe they should spring for a digital camcorder. Or at least learn how to adjust the camera they have.

Camera's not white-balanced.

I noticed that last night with the last council meeting. Not just you.

Looks like the timebase corrector between the playback device and the cable system could use a tweak, too. I guess nobody at Charter knows how to read a waveform monitor/vectorscope anymore.

Thank you Mr. Spock, I thought maybe they were just trying to save money on rouge.

Or was it that someone told the mayor his fly was unzipped as he came into the meeting?

I was videotaping the meeting on Tuesday and I noticed a problem with glare coming from the commissioners heads that have thinning hair, and Mullenbach's hair was blending into the walls.
I set the white balance on the camera before I started taping and during the meeting I had no problem switching between the preset white balance settings so I'm pretty sure it wasn't the camera causing the problem.
Anyone know what could be causing this?

Underlit subject / overlit background.
Iris setting / gain too high?

I've been looking at the video and it looks like the lighting has somehow changed.
Here's a 1mb clip of the cheesy intro for the meetings and you can see the difference in the two videos. The first part of the video is from 2 weeks ago and then it transitions into this weeks video and you can see the difference.
I haven't changed any settings on the camera in the last two weeks but I noticed there was a speck of dust on the wide angle lense. Could a speck of dust on the lens cause this?

Just eyeballing it, I can see that the video levels between the two clips differ by about 20 IRE. IRE is a measurement of video units, 7.5 being usable black, and 100 being full white.
Maybe you can iris down - the higher f-stop will give you a wider depth of focus as well.
