My webcam is not modified for long exposure.
In PHD, camera connection , choose, "Window WDM style web cam"
I use the default 1 sec exposure time.
What are you guiding through?
I was using an iOptron 80mm F5, and sometimes finding a star was a bit of a hassle.
No problems at all though, with the little finder guider that ponders and I knocked up.
Just remember to go into the Camera Dialogue and turn off the automatic settings and adjust your gain etc accordingly.
