Camera Adjustments in Meetings
Please give us the ability to adjust camera, microphone and speaker settings for a video meeting. We need settings similar to Skype. My camera is very dark and there's no brightness setting.
Thanks!

I used to have a workaround to use my webcam's software to tweak settings, but as of 1.4.00.6073 (64-bit) Teams resets the video settings each time video is turned on again, so I constantly have to re-apply in my webcam settings app... very annoying.

Come on, Microsoft! I can adjust this using Logitech Capture settings, and save them, but Teams continues to default to just the raw camera.

Yes - this should be a feature in Teams. BTW I was able to fix my Teams camera issue by using the Skype settings - go figure.

WTF - Seriously brightness and contrast is missing form MS Teams cameras why when Skype has this feature?
This is somthing I thought was present until the last few days when the sun is returning after winter.
If is to bright people cannot see me now for a few hours for in the day when the clouds clear, what is it going to be like all day in the summer.
I will need to purchase curtins or blinds for the home office.
Seriously this feature being on SKYPE but missing from MS Teams is costing people money. -

This needs to be a priority as it's affecting a lot of our calls. The auto exposure in TEAMS is making some feeds look really dark and it's ridiculous you can't turn it off.

Yes, please add a possibility to adjust camera settings as all other Online Meeting Software like GoToMeeting or WebEx or Zoom do.

PLEAAAASEEEE Allow for camera settings within the Teams app! I'm somehow the only one in my meetings that is overexposed. Some of these people haven't seen me in over a year - I want them to know that I'm more than just a pair of eyebrows. Sheesh.

Manual controls are needed. AI auto zoom and image correction should be the default.

We have learned that if you still have Skpe installed on your machine that you can open it, go into vidoe settings and adjust your camera from there and the adjustments show in Teams!

I totally agree, this would be a very nice feature

Several camera adjustments would be useful.
But most important, to me, is to be able to zoom the camera.Standard laptop and tablet cameras are wide angle. That distorts peoples faces and makes their heads look unnaturally big. Being able to zoom is the solution here.

I know this sounds crazy, but check what theme your Teams client is in (default or "dark" mode). I was having this issue, and when I switched back to default theme, the webcam got a huge amount brighter. Silly enough, it's probably just the darkness of the screen reflecting off your face, or alternatively, it's the brightness of a bright screen reflecting (or my giant forehead in this case ;>) Hope this helps others.

Manual Exposure Wanted! commented
Manual exposure setting would be very nice. Also - once you have a body outline detected anyhow (for background removal) - you could calculate proper exposure taking into account the outlined body area only.

Please add this feature.

I don't like using backgrounds because of the strange outline it makes of my head. Also agree with others who want to lesssen others' view of items behind me. Currently only option is to move laptop closer to me - makes other tasks difficult.

Awful experience using Microsoft Lifecam Cinema with Windows 10--auto-exposure often hunts, leaving me washed out and overexposed.
