Zoom / Teams Meetings Settings (EOS Rebel T7)

I'm using an EOS Rebel T7 for work meetings in Zoom / Microsoft Teams. The connection works great to a Macbook (USB-C Cord, EOS software, etc).

I'm still learning how to use the camera --

Besides using "Movie Mode", what camera settings would you suggest for web conferencing for work?

Thanks!

The camera should only be set to Movie Mode when using the EOS Webcam Utility.

Thanks -- what I'm asking is if there is anything else (besides Movie Mode) that someone would suggest for webcam use?

Anything like lens aperture, white balance, etc -- I'm new to this, so not sure if there's an obvious list of settings one would use while on Movie Mode

Concerning white balance, I would use auto white balance white priority (AWBW).

Suggest setting the camera mode dial the the Green [A+] mode until you become more familiar with how to use the camera. Set the lens AF/MF switch to AF, if it has one. If the camera has and IS switch, leave that turned off because I suspect the camera is on a tripod or some other means of support that stops it from moving.
