Setting Exposure

How does one determine the ideal exposure in video based imaging.

I am using a DMK 41 from Imaging SOurce. I use IC Capture. I go for a pleasant looking picture on the screen, and check the histogram.

Is tht all there is to it?

I cannot seem to find a good description of what the different settings are for.

Does adjusting gamma have any effect on the captured image, or just on how it is displayed?

ANybody have any good hints?
