Summary

I obtained a webcam primarily to permit me to communicate with friends from Europe. Actually the person with whom I planned to use it the most frequently lives in England, and we used the web to choose a cam together, intending thus to find hardware and...

Strength

Maximum functionality for minimal layout

Weakness

Tricky to hang off a flat screen, awkward MSN interface

Bottom Line

Get this webcam to obtain maximum functionality from a webcam this price to $200 more. Need I say more?

Summary

This camera is of reasonable quality given the price range (around 30 bucks). There is an STX version, I don't know what the difference is, that goes for more and apparently is better quality. The optics are 'fuzzy' meaning that if I compare it to my...

Strength

Cheap, reasonable quality (still better than most Labtec entry level junk)

Weakness

Bad Drivers
Mediocre road optics

Bottom Line

If you can find this under 30$ then go ahead and buy it. For 30$ it is not worth it.

Essentially not usable at night

Strength

Easy to set-up, built in microphone, compatible with most software, and nice LCD mount.

Weakness

Quality isn't fantastic.
