On Windows 10, you can now change the brightness, contrast, and rotation settings and enable or disable Video HDR or Eye Contact for webcams and network cameras, and here’s how.
Starting with build 21354 and higher releases, Windows 10 includes the Cameras page in the Devices section of the Settings, which in addition to enable and disable devices, you can also change settings like brightness and contrast.
You can also enable Eye Contact, a feature that uses AI to adjust your gaze on a video call to appear like if you are looking into the camera instead of the display, and “Video HDR” on compatible devices.
In this guide, you will learn the steps to adjust the camera settings on your Windows 10 device.
