Customer Reviews

Impressive quality and perfect size
When I got the package, the first thing that made me happy was the size of this camera. I travel a fair amount on business and have a two-year-old daughter, so I always take a camera with me to talk to her at night and allow her to see me. The size of this camera is as good as it gets for traveling, and it also includes a great padded pouch for transporting it.

The other aspect of this product that I loved is its image quality, especially in regards to how well it adjusts the image based on the light and also how when you are on a Skype call and you move, the person on the other side can clearly see the movement instead of seeing a blur on their screen. I compared its quality side by side with my previous camera, which roughly costs half of what this one goes for, and the difference in quality was huge; making this a great purchase.

In terms of the software installation, the instructions were simple and clear and the process does not take too much time. The only thing that can be improved is that when you get to the point in which you are prompted to plug in the camera, while the computer is checking the configuration, the installation screen keeps prompting for the camera to be plugged in. People used to installing plug-and-play hardware will quickly realize what is going on, but some users may be confused by this and start unplugging and plugging the device.

In terms of using the camera with Skype, the integration is seamless. The only setting I had to adjust manually was the microphone, but this is straightforward, I just needed to go to the Options / Sound Devices and pick the appropriate audio in. A final thing to consider is that for the camera to work with Skype you have to close the Logitech Quickcam software, since the image cannot be used by both programs at the same time.

Overall I am highly satisfied with this product, and besides the minor problems mentioned above, the only other thing I did not care for was the stand. This camera works great if you are going to clip it to your laptop screen, but the stand provided for use with desktops is wobbly and does not help with image quality at all.

Very Nice....
I got this to use with my Dell Inspiron 1525 notebook and it works very well.
However the first thing I noticed that it DOES NOT come with the carry case as shown. Just the stand.

The installation: Very easy. Maybe because I already had some Logitech camera software on this notebook. I just plugged in the camera, opened the software, it gave me a link to the support site where I chose what model of camera I had and what operating system was on my notebook, download, install, done! Works very well with Vista.

Picture quality: Very good, very clear. The lens has a very wide angle, almost like wall-eye. So even if you have it clipped to the top of your notebook you don't look like you are that close to the camera.

Sound quality: I have been told by people who I call that sound is really great! Miles better than my last cam, a million miles better than my notebook mic. So sound gets five stars.

Features: Very funny, very amusing. The masks are really cool, so are the filters. You'll have fun with them.

Bad points: As mentioned above there is no case! The stand it comes with is flimsy and don't have enough weight at the bottom so its easy to topple over.

So to sum up: Looks great, has great picture, amazing sound, super features. A good buy.

High quality, compact size and fascinating features in a elegantly designed webcam.
As I always trusted logitech products beacuse of their thorough research and testing phases. This product has exceeded my expectations. I think it is the best notebook webcam out in the market.Great product in relation to monetary value paid for it. Below is some of my well thought and accumulated perceptions of the product that may help you make good buying decision:

Image and video quality: Best in the market especially if you are on the move.

Installation: 5 minutes with simple steps.

Size: Very small size designed specifically to move with special sponge carrying bag.

Features: High quality, ulra automatic adjustment feature would make it an ample webcam in any lighting environment (sunny, dark, cloudy, in room etc.).

Good luck and I take an opportunity to recommend this webcam to individuals who value innovation, quality and value based satisfaction.
