Go to settings in camera app and turn on pro mode. This should allow you to adjust brightness from an icon on the left side of video. This will also effect teams video brightness. 🙂

Also make sure you have the webcam that you want to use selected.

This has no affect on Teams. The camera app is completely unrelated to Teams. Teams needs its own settings for how it uses the camera.

redrook Not sure why this worked for me, but it did.

Also adjusting video settings in Skype works for Teams too, apparently.

  AstonLester, Turn off your camera in Teams, then put the Camera app. Press the settings and put Advanced Settings. Press the circle with the plus and minus and put your brightness higher and close the app and test the camera. Good day.

    RobloxianMan13660I just tried this during a Teams meeting, it did nothing. Absolutely no difference. Because Teams controls the camera settings itself, the camera app and Teams do not speak to each other. This workaround DOES NOT WORK. Microsoft need to include camera settings in the Teams app.
