Topic: Quickcam 9000 Issue

Okay, so the filming has been going fine the past few days, but today, I tried it, and the focus isn't working really well, and here's the picture quality:

The focus doesn't make the quality any better.

Change your res to highest and it should look good.

Re: Quickcam 9000 Issue

That's because your lighting isn't good enough. See the big dot of gleaming light on the wall? That doesn't look good. You and your cameras (especially webcams!) want consistent lighting. Try to diffuse your light sources (one isn't enough) by putting waxed paper on them. Webcams will only unleash their full power quality if there's perfect lighting. But then, the quality can be really good.

Figured out the issue guys, it wasn't lighting, or res, it was by accident I had the camera zoomed in all the way on the figures so it made the quality blurry.

I'm glad you could figure out the solution!
