Fuji Finepix a205 webcam problems

[felix]

I just bought a Fuji Finepix a205 and when i'm using the webcam function on yahoo messenger the image is very dark. I can't set the brightness in the yahoo messenger settings. I use Windows XP Pro SP1, latest Yahoo Messenger and it seems that it has the same problem in MSN Messenger.

Please help.

thx

how much was it, i'm planning to get one
How is the light in ur room, and what is the MP

I payed for it 170$, it was new brought by a guy from USA, but what the hell... here in Romania you can find it in the stores at almost 300$. It has 2MP and with the daylight the webcam works fine (very clear image)... at night with a 80 Watts light in my room you can barelly see me ... anyway... a very good deal.

You should try WebcamXP. It's very powerful program and has a lot of video settings: brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, sharpness, etc.
