Camera Settings
by Jorn Baayen
Adjust the image your camera captures
About
Laptop cameras are not all equally well calibrated. The out-of-the-box image differs noticeably from one machine to another: some produce a picture that is too dark, washed out, or tinted under ordinary indoor lighting, when the sensor is capable of considerably better once its controls are adjusted. Camera Settings gives you those controls, with a live preview so you can see the effect of a change as you make it. It shows only what your camera actually reports, grouped by what the setting does. Video controls are reset by the kernel every time a camera is connected, so your adjustments would normally be lost. Camera Settings remembers them per camera and can reapply them when you log in and whenever a camera is plugged back in. Depending on the camera, you may be able to adjust: - Brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, gamma and sharpness - White balance, automatic or by color temperature - Exposure mode and manual exposure time - Backlight compensation and flicker reduction - Focus, zoom, pan and tilt, where the camera supports them
