Vista - Another video call problem

Hello all,
Not so much a problem but more of an annoyance really. I'm using
WLM 8.5 and a sony camcorder via firewire for video calls. In the
audio and video setup wizard the picture from the camera is fine i.e.
I see on my screen, exactly what is on the 2.5" LCD on the cam, BUT in
the webcam settings dialog AND the actual video call, the picture
looks cropped and zoomed, so if i sit too close to it all you see is
my nose!!!
Older versions of WLM never did this (before 8.0 maybe...cant
remember). Ideas anyone?

Hope this makes sense!

Thanks in advance,

Sam.
