How to Make a Canon G10 a Webcam
Windows can turn just about any camera capable of motion video into a webcam; this includes the Canon G10. Once you have configured your camera as a webcam, you can use it with a variety of chat services, such as Yahoo, Google chat or Skype. This also includes chat websites like Omegle, Chatroulette and Tinychat. Given the high resolution of the Canon G10, your video broadcasts will be a very high quality.
