Default [Q]Video call in Google Talk

I am having a strange issue with video call in Talk. When I use the front facing camera, the image position inside the rectangle is fixed and goes out of focus when the tablet is moved. Only way I can get the video to work is if i keep the tablet perfectly still, which defeats the purpose of the tablet. Is there a way to fix it?

The camera works fine otherwise.

Slide the hand above your image to the left. Should sort that out.

To the other poster, make sure the other person is on a computer or phone with compatible hardware + software.
