Magic Camera, sometimes known as Magic Camera Virtual Webcam, is an application for Microsoft Windows to generate virtual webcams on Windows. It can be used to stream files or displays as a webcam, or create visual effects on a physical webcam. Since the first release of Magic Camera on March 20, 2006, its author ShiningMorning Soft has maintained and kept the product as shareware.

Many instant messengers can only read webcams in video chats. Magic Camera removes this limitation by using another source as your webcam. It supports webcams, digital cameras, TV/video capture cards, DVs, camcorders, and IP cameras. It can add visual effects to the video source and then use the output as a webcam.
