I am just wondering if my Samsung Digimax A6 digital camera can be used as a webcam? Thanks in advance.

This camera is made for less than 24x7 power up time and likely why a webcam interface is not supported. Hope this helps.

No.

For a camera to be used as a webcam, it requires special drivers and also the camera has to have webcam capabilities.

The A6 has neither of those.
