Lighting adjustment is done in the camera AFAICT and requires no support beyond basic uvcvideo. I don't know about wide-angle since mine doesn't do that. What is "intelligent face tracking"? Does it have a motor so the camera can move? Video effects are done post- video feed and depend on the Logitech junk, but these are useless. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
