how to use camera in laptop

You might be thinking, "Why would I need a camera on my laptop?" The answer is you don't. But the good news is that you can use a camera on your laptop to do almost anything with it. For starters, if you are at home and need to get some pictures of your new baby or other loved ones in different locations across the house, taking family photos is easier when you are able to put them side-by-side on your computer monitor. You can then print them or have them laminated for a photo album. For business reasons, some employers have their employees take photos of the work being done. It helps to have a camera on a laptop if you need to show customers what your company is doing. You can also use a camera on your laptop to take pictures of important documents that you are reading or editing to save them as files. Taking screen shots is common when someone wants to show someone else how they navigated around the Internet, wrote and edited an essay, etc.

To view pictures from your camera in Excel, select the data and press F4. You will see the image appear in Excel. To take a snapshot of a particular area, select the cells and press F3. To zoom into an image, you can use Excel's Zoom tool (press Z). To drag any part of the image to another location, press and hold Ctrl while you are dragging. This will allow you to move your copied selection instead of having the entire image copied. One more trick is that if you have a number of images saved in one location, open Excel with that location at its home screen (instead of your default).
