Something seems fishy! The sync is inverted ???

Maybe the output signal is not CCIR standard video ?

// Per.
The sync and blanking is quite normal (negative sync on baseband video). "black" level should not be so high, and obviously you should have a much bigger peak-to-peak video swing.

Edit: do you have a lens on the camera? If not, the automatic gain will set the general video level to 50% as you see.
