Works well wit Skype January 31, 2010
Just Me (Seattle)
This web cam works quite well. Windows 7 automatically recognized and installed the necessary drivers; no need to install the bloated software Logitech provides. One slight issue though. When I first installed it there was a big lag between my movements and the image displayed by the camera. This resulted in the audio being more than one second out of sync with the video. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting my USB ports before I realized the problem was caused by "Low Light Boost" being enabled by default on the camera. Turning this off and using the camera's exposure control settings to adjust for room lighting eliminated the lag.
 Unexpected ease January 7, 2010
Robert J. Hoffarth (Rochester, NY)
Bought 2, one for me and one for my daughter. Great product, it actually does what its supposed to without hours of tech support to get it to work. Easy set up easy use, well worth the price. Definitely recommend this product.
 disappointment December 27, 2009
Sandra B. Hardy (Fairburn,GA)
I know I paid very little for this item but, since I have a logitech, I was hoping that the quality would live up to its' name.
I am so embarrassed by the quality that I will get another skype camera at a higher price

Its better than expected. Stable image. Not advised if you want to record video.. image stabilization can be an issue.. but you cant expect more than the given price..
Good purchase December 19, 2009
Andreas S. (Ohio)
It works as it should. I got it to upgrade a very old iMac (OS X 10.3) with a camera for use with Skype. I'd give this product 5 stars except that it doesn't come with Mac-readable software. You need to download a hack from the internet to make it work. I recommend this for use with Macs only if you really know what you have to do.
