Topic: Manual focus

I just got a Logitech Quickcam Vision Pro for my mac and was wondering if all cameras have manual focus because its auto focus feature doesn't work well with Minifigs? If anyone else has a mac, could you please post how the camera is set up on your computer?

What is a Quickcam 'Vision' Pro? There's Quickcam Pro 4000 and 9000, but no Vision Pro?

Do some bloody research. All it took was copying and pasting the name of the webcam in Google. Jeez.

Anyways, from the website I just linked to I gather that the autofocus only goes up to 10cm (about 4 inches) from the lens. While usually this is more than enough for normal conditions, it's not quite close enough to the lens for proper minifig scale. Looks like there's little you can do, as this simply is a limitation of the webcam.
