Logitech C270

Highlights in webcam image become blown out when exposure time increases when large amount of black items (Bed, Print head) are in frame

Is it possible to set a fixed Shutter speed / Gain rather than using the auto exposure setting?

I've tried re-positioning my lighting but still get change in exposure as bed and print head move.

You can adjust the settings with uvcdynctrl. More info here

You can list the available settings with uvcdynctrl -c -v

Changing the exposure settings on my C270 doesn't do much tho. I adjusted Brightness, Contrast and Saturation
