Most digital camera's aren't set up to act as webcams, but if you're technically inclined you can make them makeshift function as a low quality webcam.
In order to do that though you would need to write camera specific software on your own as none is readily available.
Another option is just to spend 10 bucks on a cheap usb webcam.
But for the most part it is impossible to use a digital camera as a webcam because of the way their temporary memory is setup and the fact that they can't send/take stream pictures/video.
Good luck though and I hope you can make it work!

Some. SOME.
If your camera is natively able to then check your settings/manual. If you still can't figure it out post the camera model here.
If there isn't a setting to do it and you try to force it software wise you will break it, as it was not built specifically to take that kind of use.
Most cameras don't have the processes/temporary memory needed to push out images quickly.
I can submit to you several articles that people tell about how if they get a camera to use as a webcam (even when it's made to) it wastes it.
Not only that, but there is no universal program for cameras without the capacity to do it on their own. You would have to write it on your own based on your drivers.
