Comments on Image Capture draft

Need an attribute to set the white balance color as an integer in degree kelvin.

ISO does not makes much sense without aperture and speed. What does an implementation do when the ISO gets changed? How can an application use these to get the desired effect. Suggestion to add aperture and speed. On many devices the aperture is fixed and trying to change it would fail. 

Lots of camera support a "sport mode" vs "portrait mode" or something like that. I would be nice to be able to tell camera if it was doing aperture priority or speed priority. 

For all the things like brightness, shapness etc, need to say what the range is and how the browser implements them. (BTW - I think several of these might be better as floats than longs)

Need to be able to set manual focus distance. 

Having the zoom be in something that can be mapped a field of view instead of relative lens would be much more useful for application programmers. So for example, it could be specified in what it would be in mm relative to a 35 mm sensor. Or it could just be represented as a ratio of sensor size.
