I've never noticed the lighting issue as such, but it does call attention to some things I certainly have noticed in some episodes of the remastered DVD's.

It's been mentioned before in this forum: Especially in close-ups of the actors (and actresses!), I can see the make-up they are wearing, lipstick, eye liner, etc. Used to enhance their facial features one might not normally expect to see on 1960's small screen television. I don't even have the blue-ray DVD's. I wonder how even more pronounced it would look on blue-ray?

Don't forget that in the 60s the majority of viewers were watching in gloriously fuzzy B&W.

In the sixties a lot of TV series, including Mission Impossible used something called Day for Night to save money. Scenes that were supposed to be set at night were shot during the day and then put through filters to make it look like it was night. I often noticed this on quite a few MI episodes. That, in addition to the "too" bright episodes were interesting visuals.
