Hi Chris

The most obvious thing that I can see is the shadows and black levels are too dark. I can't see any detail on the guy's clothes but then again that might be my monitor or the lighting conditions I'm working under. What model of Sony camcorder are you using?, someone else might have a similar model and be able to suggest some changes you can make to the controls.
