will my digital camera work as a webcam?
i have a GE A950 digital camera and i was hoping to use it for Skype calls as a webcam.
Is this possible? if so i can’t figure out how to make it work.
Can this camera be used as a webcam?
The answer to this VERY common question is nearly always “No”.
Read your manual – if it was possible, you can be sure your manual would tell you how to do it.
Even if you COULD find the necessary drivers, software etc, why would you even WANT to use your still camera (think of all the wear and tear on camera and batteries), when a $20 web cam does a perfectly wonderful job of it and can remain all hooked up and ready to use?
If you did a quick search here on YA, you would find MANY answers to this. http://answers.yahoo.com/search/search_result;_ylt=AmaFlWzXh9x2Nk8d3RJ4v0C0xQt.;_ylv=3?p=camera+as+web+cam
