Hi!

I have a solution, but it might not be what you want. We need a camera in our robot project to recognize different shapes etc. To do this, we use SimpleCV. This will give you easy access to the camera and the default configuration is pretty sweet. I didn't have to do anything to get a pretty nice image (I need to increase the resolution a bit though). So what you can do, is to use SimpleCV to interface your camera, and then convert those images to ROS images and publish them to a topic. It works flawlessly and is easy to integrate with your ROS project.
