Some you can, I had one with a 'Webcam' setting.

Guess that's not too much help though!

I had a fuji one that could be used as a webcam.I think the s/w was provided with the camera.You used the usb download cable to connect the camera to the pc ,select the appropriate function on the camers and away it went.

The cheaper end of the market seem to have the webcam setting as they're nothing more than battery operated webcams themselves. As soon as you start getting to about £100 they lose that setting and start concentrating on taking pictures
