I think I know the answer to this question, but maybe one of you smart people has a solution to my problem, or at least something that might help...
I have video from a recent wedding reception I attended. My camera is a Panasonic GS70 3CCD, not known for great low light capturing. The video from the reception is very dark - even with the shutter speed set as slow as possible and iris/gain set to 18db the image is so dark you can just see what is happening. I have added the Brightness/Contrast filter and done as much as I can with that to improve the image but it still looks pretty bad. Adding the Black & White filter to convert to B&W helps a bit.
Are there any other tricks, short of buying a new camera or adding light during shooting, that I can do in Vegas to improve the image?
