Hey Ted,
I would suggest getting yourself a better camera, but that seems like the obvious response.
However, using our Poly cameras will enable you to access Poly Lens Desktop while on a call, and change backlight compensation and other settings on the fly.

VincentDal I already use a decent external camera. The latter sounds like a good tip. Thank you!
