loosing quality?

[rmarinescu]

The stills made with my Canon MVX150i look very good on TV, but on my computer the quality is poor. On my computer the pictures have more blue or grey color and are less vivid compared with them on TV.
Is there other solution to correct this error (without software)?

Try calibrating your monitor. If you have adobe you can use adobe gamma. If not you should be able to google "monitor calibrations" and come up with something.

My monitor is calibrated with adobe gamma. The stills made with my camcorder look different from others.

It might be your TV. You might have the saturation and color on your TV turned up a bit more than you have on your monitor. Sometimes even calibration won't help. My other monitor is just always dark no matter what. I've set the contrast/brightness all the way up/down whatever and its never "normal". :/

If I'm telling you something you know, please forgive me.

There are wolves at every juction of loading your images onto your computer. Before you go any further, you should check the stats of the image you loaded. I'm not familiar with your camera, but doing a quick check, I found that it produces a still image of 1280 x 960 (SXGA). My guess is that this should produce an image of about 600k to 800k after resonable compression. Check the details in Adobe and make sure that the dimensions are 1280x960 and check the image size. If anything is awry, the image may have been damaged in loading it to computer. Another good test would be to upload one image to a commercial photo print business, and check the results there.
