Getting started with video calling

Your Logitech HD Webcam c615 provides Fluid HD 720p video calling.

To take advantage of video calling both you and the person you call must install Skype™, or use a different video-calling application such as Yahoo! Messenger, Windows Live Messenger or Gmail.

Learn more: skype.com

As well as a webcam and video calling application, both callers need:

• A computer with speakers (or a headset) and a microphone; your Logitech HD Webcam c615 has a built-in microphone.
• A broadband Internet connection (e.g., DSL, T1, or cable).

Using your webcam with Windows 8

Use the Camera app, available from the Windows 8 Start screen, to operate and control your webcam.

Understanding the Camera app

1. Preview window. Click or tap to capture photos or videos (depending on whether Video Mode is selected).
2. Change webcams (when you have more than one). The face of your Logitech webcam illuminates when selected.
3. Adjust your camera settings.
4. Activate or deactivate the Timer feature. When activated, there is a three second countdown to capturing a photo or video.
5. Turn Video Mode on (to record videos) or off (to take photos).
6. Click or tap on the arrows to scroll through the photos and videos you have captured.

Videos are denoted by a timer and play button in the bottom right-hand corner:

Tip: The Camera app lets you use your webcam's most popular features quickly and easily. If you want to take advantage of the enhanced features your webcam offers, such as motion detection, use the Logitech Webcam Software available from logitech.com/downloads.

Adjusting your Camera settings

The Logitech software optimizes the settings for your environment automatically. To adjust any of your settings, choose Camera options. This is available from the Camera app (see the previous page) and from within Metro apps that support webcams.

2. Choose the microphone you want to use to record sound in your videos, if you have more than one available.
3. Access More Options to benefit from enhanced features such as digital Zoom and Move.

If the More Options pane doesn't show the Logitech logo and offer enhanced options, it is likely that the Logitech software didn't install correctly when you first connected your camera. To reinstall it, go to the Windows Store and look for Logitech Camera Controller.

1. Zoom in or out to include or exclude your surroundings.
2. Having zoomed in, drag the white box to pan (adjust the focus area of your webcam).
