4) Lumina Camera LED Indicator
Lumina has two LEDs, the camera LED and the microphone LED. These LEDs turn on when in use.
The microphone LED also blinks once shortly after the camera is plugged in. There's a known issue for microphone LED on macOS Monterey, read more here.
5) Difference between Firmware and Software
To put it simply, firmware is the program inside the camera. Software is the Lumina Studio App you installed on the computer to help control the colors and use the AI features.
Updating both the firmware and software regularly is essential to getting the latest bug fixes and ensuring they work properly.
