High-contrast, dark image from external cameras.

Hi there. I’ve recently started doing live coverage using an ATEM Mini and OBS, and I use cameras like the Sony FX3, FX6, and FX9 for all my broadcasts.
However, I’ve consistently run into the same problem: whenever I send the video signal to OBS—whether from the ATEM or directly from the camera—the image loses quality and becomes overly dark and high-contrast. I haven't found a solution yet, and it’s affecting my work; the issue occurs on both Mac and Windows. Do you know how I can fix this?
 
Dark image and high contrast is either color rage mismatch or scaling without gamma in mind was applied.

It is much easier to diagnose and fix the color mistakes with color tests charts (test images). Here, on the forum, in the "Resources" section there were test charts for 8-bit (aka SDR) display devices (can be used to check the 8-bit post production chain). If you doing HDR (10-bit and more) then better to look online (for test images, test videos etc).
