My Issue:

I have a Nikon D80. When I take a picture (in the .jpg format) and view
it on the camera, it looks great. Brightness and color are great. When I
put all the pics I have taken, weather they are 10 or 200, when I access
the pics on the computer using XP’s viewer or Photo Suite or any other
viewer, all are much darker and have to lightening every single one to
get them to look correct. It is a brightness problem. Other people have
said the same thing. I don’t have the time over 200 to 500 pics to
adjust each and every single one. What is happening and how can I over
come this?

Please respond at my email address if you will:
todayorder@yahoo.com

Thank you for your help.
Steve

Probably need to adjust brightness/contrast from the buttons on the
*front* of the monitor .

You need to create a custom profile for your monitor. There are lots of
discussions of this subject over at rec.photo.digital.
What does the histogram look like?

And, if it's like my Fuji and others I've used, there seems to be some logic
within the camera itself that automatically "compensates" images on it's
internal lcd display. Consider the lcd display a guide at best but keep in
mind if the camera can process the image to look better on it's display you
certainly can do the same with software on your pc.
