There is, but you don't want to use it :)  Some time ago,
I've used a nondescript USB webcam with the OV511+ chipset.

There's /usr/ports/graphics/vid to capture images, which works
fine, although the quality is downright horrible since vid has
no support for any of the "advanced" features of the camera
(white balance, zoom etc.)

Cheers,
