About:
CameraController is a macOS utility that provides granular control over USB webcams directly from a user-friendly application interface. It enables users to adjust settings like exposure, focus, and white balance that are often locked by default by system drivers. This tool is essential for content creators and developers needing precise camera configuration without complex command-line utilities.
Key Features:
  • Adjust exposure, focus, and white balance settings
  • Simple, native macOS user interface
  • Supports multiple connected USB cameras
  • No terminal or complex configuration required
Use Cases:
  • Fine-tuning webcam settings for streaming or video conferencing
  • Developing applications requiring specific camera configurations
  • Overriding automatic settings that produce poor image quality
Alternatives:
  • Webcam Settings (macOS System Preference Pane) – CameraController offers a more modern and potentially more granular interface than the legacy system preference pane.
  • CameraController (CLI) – The GUI version provides an easier, more accessible way to manage settings compared to the command-line interface.
