I purchased the above product as a gift for people who will be separated for two years, two people on each continent. The cameras, with in-built micropohones, would help them stay connected by using Skype.

This is a great buy if you're just looking for a basic webcam for chats and so. The audio first of all is great. I've had no problems with that. It was easy to setup for immediate use. The clip for the monitor or laptop seems very practical, efficient and sturdy. I don't see it breaking or going bad in the foreseeable future. It definitely keeps the cam in place very well. Plus, it just looks great!

On the downaide, the video and picture quality is not the best, but for the price, it's acceptable.



3 out of 5 stars Item received not as pictured online.   August 11, 2008
Ellery N. Davidson (Phoenix, Arizona United States)
The camera I received was not the one pictured online. I purposely ordered a model that came with a stand rather than one that clips to the monitor, but that's what I got instead. I decided to give it a try anyway. First, I found it difficult to get the camera to stay where I wanted it to since I just sits on top of the monitor - there's no way to affix it firmly in place and the weight of the usb cable tends to pull it down. Also, the video it created was very choppy and out of sync with the sound. The model I ordered was supposed to take video at 30fps - I do not know if the camera I received had that capture rate or not. Regardless, it was unacceptable. I boxed it up and sent it back.

3 out of 5 stars Not What Is In Photo   August 1, 2008

I am a bit confused with my order, it was shipped in a timely matter and came in good condition. There wasn't much to it, just the cam, instructions booklet, copy of my order, and the installation disk. Only thing is, this isn't the cam pictured here on the website. This cam has a clip instead of the flexible style of footing and the cam is black with a silver focus adjustment. I typed in the upc and that led me to the blue cam pictured here (what I had ordered) but I still do not know which product I have received, if it is a newer style of this one or something different. The cam looks like the one found here:

[...]


the only exception being that the face is not blue, but black and glossy.

On the other hand, the cam works quite well and I am satisfied with its performance. The microphone works as I had hoped and has good reception from 2 or more meters away. The video quality is not exceptional, but it is nice and clear, not grainy and it doesn't lag unless you are running a couple graphics intensive programs like a video game. Setup was quick and easy, all I had to do was plug in the cam, a pop-up window came up asking me to insert the disk, then just followed the instructions, restarted my computer and I was ready to go.
