Mac Forum / General / Portable Macs / August 2006MacBook I-sight issue
I got a MacBook about a couple of months ago and I love it.... however... I have some issue with the built in I-sight camera and wonder if it is my individual problem or if others are experiencing the same. I have a Logitec USB web cam that really works well. Even if the lighting is low... it broadcasts nice and clear and bright with true to life colors. My I-sight camera, on the other hand, is dim and has an orange tinge to it most of the time. Compared to the Logitec the I-sight is terrible. Given the advertising build-up of the I-sight, I'm wondering if there might be something wrong with mine. My question is: is there a setting somewhere or some controls that can boost the performance of the I-sight? Are other MacBook owners experiencing the same problem with their I-sight camera? Is there a way to disable the I-sight to use the Logitec with Yahoo Chat? Thanks for any opinions/theories/advise that you can throw at me.

I looked around in photobooth and don't see any camera controls other than the effects. Thanks for the suggestion... Bob >>> I got a MacBook Compared to the Logitec >>> the I-sight is terrible.

I have no other webcam to compare my iSight with, Bob. Where I use my MacBook, my face is not well lit (light is behind me). But the area behind my chair is, and looks normal as imaged by the camera. Like you, I see no other camera controls in Photo Booth. Perhaps there is something buried in Utilities .. or some 3rd party software. Since I don't do Chat or IM, I really find the camera just a novelty at this point. Phil |
