As you can see from the log, the camera is only providing up to 640x480
as video/x-raw. Even image/jpeg is only produced up to 640x480. Higher
resolutions are only provided as video/x-h264, which is most likely not
what most VC apps handle automatically already. Cheese could probably
plug a decodebin into the camera source.
