I read that there are two ways of doing this: using WIA SDK and avicap32.dll. This is the first time I worked on an API that utilize a webcam. It seems that there are no official ways of using a webcam in .NET. Could someone give a link for a tutorial or maybe teach me how to do this? After I'm finished with this, I must work on saving the image to SQL.

Here is a project to provide a class for manipulating a web camera.

I've tried and this doesn't work. :(
Object reference not set.. They say that it might be a camera issue but I tried other solution and it works. I just don't want to use the working project because it's so complex for me.
