    I just recently bought a Sager 5165 w/ a built-in BisonCam, NB Pro webcam. I've been having some issues with the coloration for both photos and video; every image appears so dark that it's almost grayscale'd --even in well-lit rooms and in natural lighting. I tried messing around with the settings in Bisoncap as well as reinstalling the drivers, but I haven't had any success. Any ideas? Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    The built in camera is not particularly high quality and fairly dark picture is pretty common. Others have had better luck with external cameras as there isn't much ability to change any of the settings.
