Do not point the web camera directly at the sun.

Do not touch or press strongly on the web camera lens. Doing so may
reduce image quality. Use an eyeglass cleaner (cleaner cloth) or other
soft cloth to clean the lens if it becomes dirty.

Setting the [Size] to more than "800 × 600" will cause a larger amount
