It's strange, but for me the camera lag goes down when you crank up the camera settings. So, set size to 640x480, and compression to about 10.

You do this by opening up Begin.vi and changing the inputs into the various Camera VIs.

Alternatively, if your programmer has already implemented the vision processing code, that tends to mess with the camera's settings. Make sure you're using the default code (e.g. make a new project).
