ly and fully into the line in of the sound card.

Directing the camera
5 The position of the camera and the amount of light available have a great effect on the quality of the video images.
Preferably position the camera at eye level and less than a metre away from what you want to record. Ensure that as
much light as possible is falling on the object you want to record.
