I just brought, which is advertised as having Windows-only drivers. System Profiler identified the chipset as being from Vimicro Corporation. I went to the section of their website and downloaded (and installed) the DRVZC0301PLus070305 driver. I then opened up Photo Booth, and was able to select the Vimicro camera as the video source.
What I should have done was just try and access the Microscope using Photo Booth before I installed the driver, as I half suspect that there was no actual need to install that driver. Close-up of a new razor blade Please try to use the microscope with Photo Booth first before downloading the driver, and let me know in the comments if that works. Categories, Tags.
Here is the USB information from System Profiler venddevice: Version: 1.00 Bus Power (mA): 500 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Product ID: 0x700f Vendor ID: 0x0458 The main chip on the PCB has the following identifiers ZC0301Plus Vmc-48L TS001DA1290226 The PCB is printed with LR128 REV:P I hope the above information is correct. The writing is very small. The MACAM software starts OK and states that it is connected to Genius VideoCam Web. If I press play the light on the camera lights up but I do not get any picture in MACAM. I am then unable to pause the camera. I need to force-quit macam.
