LCD Screen seems dark

Hi there,
I've had my DVX100 for about a month now, and there's something I've noticed with the flip out LCD screen. When I'm viewing it at a certain angle, which would be just a little above 90 degrees, [ie i'm looking slightly down on it] the image goes very very dark. If I keep tilting it higher, the it get bright again, or if I tilt it the other way, it's fine. The optimum brightness is when I view it a little below 90degrees [ie I tilt it so I am looking slighty 'up' at it].

Do you guys have the same thing happen with your LCD's? I'm a little surprised that it does this, as I have a cheap old sony which has a very bright lcd no matter what the viewing angle.
 
Hmmmm. I guess I'm just surprised that it happens so close to the 90 degree axis. On the old sony i mentioned, and even my Panasonic Lumix FZ20 it happens at a much more accute angle.

thanks for the reply.
