Cannot use the onboard camera (1.3 Mpx) for Skype - it is such poor quality, just a green screen with stripes. Tried the Win8 camera app, snowy, washed-out picture. Contacted vendor, no help. There is nothing to set that improves the quality either. Looking at many forums, it seems all VAIOs have the same problem. I cannot believe Sony is shipping expensive hardware with this kind of bad quality, and no fixes anywhere!?<BR type="_moz" /></P><P style=";">£5 supermarket webcam has better image quality and low light performance than this.

The laptop is generally excellent in every way, however, the inbuilt camera quality is unbelievably poor for Sony. I use a Logitech HD camera; the picture quality is in a different league. Since I only bought this laptop a few months ago I am hoping some camera fix will come from Sony.</P> Fri, 04 Oct 2013 12:26:19 GMT https://community.sony.dk/t5/pcs-accessories/poor-camera-quality-vaio-sve1712z1eb/m-p/1364688#M131899 museltof 2013-10-04T12:26:19Z
