Similarly, if you use the webcam on zoom software, you will not be able to use it on other software, such as Microsoft Teams or Google Meet.
14.Why is there a green edge when using a green screen for live streaming?
After testing with multiple different brand cameras, it has been found that a green edge is a common issue when using green screen technology. The root cause of this problem lies in the software used for green screen editing. Due to the potential for reflection or shadow around an object that is placed against green screen, it is easy to form a green edge. In addition, if the green screen is not placed evenly or the lighting is not uniform, it can also affect the editing result.

17.What should I do if the focusing speed is slow during camera use?
If there is dirt or dust on the lens, it can affect the transparency and reflective ability of the lens, leading to an increase in the diffraction and scattering of light, which can cause a decrease in the sensitivity and accuracy of the focusing system, affecting the speed and accuracy of focus.
We suggest using a dust-free cloth or eyeglass cloth to gently wipe the dirty lens.
