Salvaged webcam from a laptop

Hello,

I have salvaged a webcam from a Samsung laptop. Research has shown it to use a standard USB 2.0 interface and drivers are still available. Has anyone else devised a way to use a camera like this for taking video? There was a little magnification in the glass covering the camera, would this be something I would need to compensate for, or will the focuser do that for me?

So many questions, but the big one first... can this be done and has anyone done it?
