Available from the following two sites (UK and US respectively):
http://www.compulink.co.uk/~elad/qv2.htm

QuickCam Viewer native OS/2 support consists of a device-driver and a PM
application. It allows for complete control over the camera's exposure,
contrast and includes image sizing capabilities.
The Viewer has the following features:
o Auto-detects parallel port to which camera is connected and port-capabilities.
o Access to camera controls for Exposure, Brightness and Contrast via sliders.
o Image enhancement with Gamma-corrected palette also on slider.
o Auto-exposure calibration to suit current lighting conditions.
o Any portion of the image can be selected for viewing - smaller image, higher
frame-rate.
o Image can optionally be stretched to fill entire picture window.
o Image can be saved to a BMP-file, copied to the clipboard or printed.
o Supports Image-Drag - picture can be dragged from the window, in BMP format.
o On-line context-sensitive help.
o Configurable Settings, Image/Camera and Others optionally saved to ini-file.
o Settings can be loaded manually or by command-line switch.
o Full MMPM/2 support, use it to capture single images or AVI movie files.
o Now with Desktop Lockup support! New variations coming soon!
The unregistered version operates in 16-greys mode only - all
features are enabled with registration.
