Hi community. After reading some members having similar issue, I have tried some of the suggested fixes, such as activating camera through F8 (nothing happened), Checking Privacy and Permissions setting in Lenovo Vantage app (all ok), and also in Device Manager I tried Updating Drivers, Disabling/Enabling camera, Un-installing and Re-installing camera. 

I have then removed Lenovo Vantage app.

No success. I tried the camera app and Skype, and still getting just a black screen instead of the camera view.

Appreciate any help with this issue.

Did EVERY GD thing and finally - the resolution was the BIOS update. Camera is now working. Lenovo is Chinese junk.

    I've solved with driver version 10.0.16299.20018 (20/12/2017). After reboot the system the camera started to work. I hope that this solution is fine and lenovo can to work for a new driver.

    My camera in Lenovo S340 not working!! I try all, but nothing happens! How to solve this problem? Do you have old drivers for camera? 

    the last thing I can do is reinstall the system. Has anyone dealt with this serious problem without reinstalling the system?
