Using Your Camera as a Webcam
1. Make sure the Camera is in the PC Camera Mode. (see Camera Function Operation-MSDC/PC Camera
mode selection)
2. Connect the camera to the computer via the USB port.
With the “WebCam Express” software you installed, you can capture short movies called AVI files. These can
be saved directly to your computer .The length of time you can record an AVI while the camera is connected to
your computer will vary, depending on how much hard drive space you will use to save the file (please note that
these AVI files take up a lot of hard drive space). This is done through the “WebCam Express” program. This
next section will walk you though capturing an AVI file.
1. Make sure that your camera is connected via the USB cable to your PC.
2. Double-click the “WebCam Express” icon that is on your desktop. This will launch the “WebCam Express”
program.
3. Adjust your Webcam to the desired position. The screen will display what the Webcam ”sees”.
