I made a mistake while shopping for laptops. I bought one without testing the webcam!!!
How on earth can I forget such an important feature???
And so, the webcam turned out to be super crappy...
I don't mind that its blurry, the main problem was the lighting is super dark.
Even if I switched on every light in my room, the pictures still look really dark.
Oh, well...
BTW, my laptop is Toshiba Portege.













Without editing will look like this.

See how dark it is?
I've learnt a valuable lesson now. Always check the webcam first before buying a laptop!
sorry about that but probably your laptop is so durable and you'll only find that out through the test of time. ;) you are very pretty! I followed you already, please follow me too. :) thanks!
ReplyDeletethanx! followed ur blog already ^^
ReplyDeleteHiya lovely! Just passing by (again~ hehe love your blog!)
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, I might be able to help with your wbcam quality here, cause mine did the same (but its a Dell)
Did the webcam come with a program which allow you to take photo's? If it does then it should have some settings which allow you to adjust brightness/contrast.
If the photo is coming out too dark; try and play around with upping the brightness and lowering the contrast.
Also; another thing to note is that, I've noticed a lot of in-built webcams quality are not that great anyway (like mine) but if you go to a place with bright natural sunlight; it normally tends to wash out the darkness really nicely (a lot of my pictures on my blog are done like that).
Anyway, I hope this helps. Let me know how it goes :] Xx
the sunlight tip really helped! thanx! playing around with it now to search for the perfect lighting! hehe ;)
