Now supports Colour!

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, Contrast and Hue,
  Saturation and Black Level via sliders.
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 be saved as a BMP or JPEG file, copied to the clipboard or
  printed.
o Supports Image-Drag - picture can be dragged from the window.
o On-line context-sensitive help.
o Configurable Settings, Image/Camera and Others optionally saved to ini-file.
o Desktop Lockup support! Use it as a screen-saver.
o Snapshot Scheduler. Saves a picture to a bitmap file at any interval, all
  day or between preset times of day. Use it to put a 'live' image on your Web
  page every 60 seconds! There are surely many applications for this. Works
  while the lockup is in effect, keep track of what happens around your PC
  while you're away. Let your imagination do the rest!
