I could argue that:

a) With a webcam you are merely transforming a form of electro-magnetic
radiation into another and then back again, so it should count
b) Even with the best optics you actually only get 9x% of the light coming
through, so it can't be a "full" tick as you haven't had the full experience

but I won't!
