Summary
Well over two years ago my wife and I upgraded to a broadband connection. This along with Instant Messaging applications finally made it realistic for us to buy a webcam and chat with grandparents, friends and family via video connections. At the time...
Strength
Small size, 6' cable and good quality
Weakness
Don't set it near your speakers...
Bottom Line
The bottom line has been spotted on the web via the Quickcam Messenger...
There are quite a few negative reviews of this camera that I could not relate to, so I thought I should post my opinion to give balance to the overall ePinion. I got this camera on sale at Office Depot for $20 as a part of the Access Trio LE (which...
Strength
The Camera works fine, and you can get a great deal on it.
Weakness
iChatters need cameras to talk to you. May need to punch holes in firewall.
Bottom Line
A cheap camera that works without problems on a modern computer. The other reviews are outdated, and this cam should give you no problems.
I recently bought the double pack of this camera. I bought it due to the variety of features it has, such as: built in microphone, compatibility with all instant messenger programs, and frame per minute rate (up to 30fpm), and an easy to use still frame...
Strength
Good hardware, good FPM rate, decent sound with the built in microphone.
Weakness
Software doesn't work well at all, camera needs specific light conditions to be optimized.
Bottom Line
Logitech should focus more on their software. They did well with the hardware of this item. I would suggest it to experienced webcam users, but not to a newer user.
Logitech Logitech is a company devoted to making Interface devices that makes things easer and more efficient for the user. They make some of the best quality and most reliable products on the market. But does the Logitech quickcam walk the walk...
Strength
Price
Weakness
Bad Quality Pictures
Bottom Line
The price of this product is one of the best on the market and would recommend it if you want to lern how to use a webcam.
I was going to buy a higher end cam but the one I wanted was out of stock so I decided to settle for this one. It was only like $30 so I figured I would give it a shot. As a bonus it came bundled with a headset and clip for a laptop or flat screen...
Strength
price
vid quality
headset & holding clip
easy installation
compatible with many chat apps
Weakness
poor holding base
low mic volume on headset
cables to short
There is nothing nice I can say about this camera. Is it easy to use? Not in the slightest. Setting the camera up on the computer or the desk is easy. That is about as far as it goes. The software that Logitech gives you installs 6...
Strength
None that I can think of.
Weakness
Outdated software, partner company out of business, and much, much, more.
Bottom Line
I do not recommend this camera to anyone. It is way too much work, for such crappy quality.
I bought it at OfficeMax for $40. I ran it on a 1.3GHz HP Pavilion 531W Celeron with 384MB ram, integrated video running Win98SE and a 56K dialup connection. (Pitiful, I know, but that's all that's available). The camera itself is rugged, the focus...
Strength
Great picture quality, framerate, sharpness, contrast, color and very good low-light tolerance
Weakness
Included software is terrible, default camera settings awful, harsh glare from close lighting
Bottom Line
Hardware is great, software sucks. Adjusting the settings and downloading the latest drivers is a must. Not good for snapshots, although I am pretty critical :)
I bought this camera by mistake. Called Walmart asking about a different model, they said they had it, went w/ 4 screaming kids and came out w/ this thing. Forget about getting this camera set at eyelevel if you have a flat panel. Can't do it. You...
this so called webcam sucks and is the freakin worst!
