Sure... you can find it in the attachment.
I also found out (reading another thread in this list:
https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/linux-uvc-devel/2011-February/006321.html )
that the camera does accept some discrete values for exposure control, i
guess the sensor is exactly the same as Lifecam HD 5000 then.
I patched v4l2ucp to display a combo in place of a slider to easly setup
these values, so at least this problem is partially fixed (still annoying,
but it's usable at least).

UVC doesn't provide a standard control for this. Some cameras support

I see... it seems kinda hard then...
Anyway worth trying, it would really help cooling down the camera... Any
hints on what to try?
