| 157741 | 2003-07-05 23:47:00 | hi i was wondering if it was possible to use my sony cybershot digital camera as webcam? as i would like to see if it gives out better quality than my logitech quickcam? the digital camera uses a usb cable to plug into computer... |

You need to realise that at full resolution you would never have the bandwidth to transmit the high quality images,unless it was 1 image every 10 seconds or so. If you want streaming video, and all parties have full jetstream it would be OK. On dial-up, the limiting factor is bandwidth, and you cant have high quality. |
