Windows Camera is the official Windows camera application. With it, you can view any camera that you connect to your computer on the screen, as well as your laptop's webcam if it has one.

Windows Camera lets you check that your camera is working properly. In addition, you can also record videos with sound, as well as take photos. This is very useful if, for example, you want to record a lecture or a video that you then want to send to someone else without using your smartphone. In both cases, you can use HDR mode to even out dark and light areas.

The recordings can be paused and resumed as many times as you want. The app merges all the parts into one, so you don't have to use an additional program.

If you want to take a picture, on the other hand, just click on the screen or use the timer. Thanks to this, you can wait 2, 3, 5, or 10 seconds (depending on what you choose) before taking a photo from your PC. From the app, you can also sync content directly with OneDrive to make sure you don't lose it.

If your camera supports it, you can also use Windows Camera to digitize documents simply by taking a photo. You can also enjoy electronic stabilization if you're using the laptop in an unstable place.

So if you want to use a camera on Windows, don't hesitate to download Windows Camera.
