Topic: I STILL HAVE LIGHT FLICKER! Please help me

I recently got a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 and I still have light flicker problems. It occurs when I put my hand in front of the camera when animating the scene and the colour of some of the bricks change to a lighter look. I'll post a picture of my studio to see if you guys can figure out what is wrong.
Thanks mini/smile

If your camera has automatic settings, turn the auto-whatever off.

Here's what I do. I always face my lamps away from my set when animating. It still provides enough light.I just don't have the lamps faced directly onto LEGO because LEGO are reflective. Then while I animate, I move the minifigure some, but here's the key part. Instead of directly hitting the capture button, I let everything sit for a second before capturing the frame. That way, it gives enough time for the camera lens to adjust to the light change from when my arm cast a shadow over the whole set.
Hope this helped some.

I just undid the auto on the white balance and did a test and I got the light flicker to go away!

If you have MonkeyJam, you can adjust it on there.
