Minimum focus distance for HP HD5210 webcam?

[SonOfWheel]

My webcam does not seem to be able to focus inside 3ft.  I have tried the auto-focus and the manual focus settings.  

Is there a way to adjust the focus point?

Reducing the brightness on my face has helped the webcam to focus.

@SonOfWheel Here's a few steps to enable manual focus for better detailing, I suggest you follow the below image (art by yours truly 😉 )

settings revert to defaults when using ZOOM .    I wanted to zoom the webcam for a tighter headshot and not my whole room in ZOOM app.

@SonOfWheel If the issue is specific to an application, please contact the software manufacturer of that program,

Good luck!
