--In Osaka-Japan and am planning to use the 602 as a webcam, together
with my mom's 602 in California. I'm ADSL, she's ISDN. Searched the
forum but seems it hasn't been covered yet - just wondering if
there are any problems that may come up when doing this? I've heard
it mentioned that a $75 dollar webcam can do just as well or
better. Am I wasting my time?

Isn't it a bummer when your favorite product isn't there any more? Yes, let's keep in touch. The "connect" date isn't until Feb 2nd, but I'll try to get things set up before that. Web cams aren't that popular over here and still pretty pricey. Hope things work out!Hi Jeffrey, i am also trying to hook up two 2650's to use as web
cams but heard the same thing, i curently have a 3Com homeconnect
web cam that was rated as the best for twice the money! i payed
180.00 us. 2 years ago. My dad just got a new computer so i was
trying to " kill 2 birds with one stone " and get him a digital
camera and web cam in one, i thought that Fuji was the way to go.
Maybe we could keep in touch, about our progress? steve in lansing
mi, usa. ps. i wish my 3Com cam wasn't discontinued!

I'll try the simple method first - which may not even work since my mother's PC modem is too slow and we have to use my brother's Mac (the ISDN connection). But its good to know about the video card route. That may turn out to be the only way that works! Thanks for your advice.The video capture card allows you to use your camera's video output
(yellow cable) for your PC. I'm pretty sure the 602 in webcam mode
doesn't allow you to change any camera settings. In situations
with average lighting, it may not look too great. But if it's in
camera mode (using the video cable as output), you can tweak
certain settings to make your image more clear. It's alot harder
to setup IMO, because there's more variables to play with. You can
get a video capture card for about 30 dollars though, so it won't
hurt too much to try.
