I know it is a FAQ but I ask again hoping some nice guy can answer...
All 3 cameras I have produce avchd pal files with levels from 16 to 256. On my computer monitor black can be "blacker". I remember there is a setting to have the on-screen preview automatically converto to 0-256... but my levels are already 256, doesn't I risk to lose details on screen ?
Monitoring RGB parade I can use Brightness and contrast to bring levels 0 to 256 trying not to lose too much details.
I have to produce PAL dvd and my first bluray. I may need to produce an mp4 rendering but not for vimeo nor for youtube, just private playback.
How can I improve my workflow ? Which settings should I use for rendering and bring lev4els back into the standard values ?
Or should I do until today, ignoring the problem (videos are for personal use). ?
