The present invention relates to a contrast correction device for correcting the contrast of an image formed by video signals. The device includes a brightness/darkness detecting circuit for detecting a tone level of the image and for producing a bright signal when the tone level is greater than a predetermined brightness, and a dark signal when the tone level is less than a predetermined darkness. A correction circuit is provided for correcting a luminance signal by a negative gamma correction in response to the bright signal, and a positive gamma correction in response to the dark signal. Thus, the contrast of bright areas in the image are enhanced when the bright signal is produced, and the same are suppressed when the dark signal is produced.
