Works well for $20,if you don't move alot.

 

You can't get a camera for $20 (from Walmart)that works this well. I love being able to see my family which is all over the country. Soon my son in the Navy could be anywhere and it will become invaluable to me. Skype is easy to use, I even got my 79...

Easy to install. Camera picture and audio are clear

There is a noticable video delay between video and voice which is annoying. It is better if you don't move around alot or very quickly

Logitech QuickCam Chat WebCam

 

Aside from it's low resoloution and semi-low FPS rate, it's not a bad buy considering it's price. It also comes with 2 free CD's, Collage Creator, and HP Invent Version 1.9. Overall, not a bad buy, considering the price.

Low price, easy set-up and installation, free headset with mic, 2 free CD's used to upload, share, print, and edit photos

Low resoloution, Semi-Low Frames Per Second, Cord is a little TOO long (6 ft)

Logitech QuickCam Chat WebCam

 

I'm not serious in using webcam while chatting so I bought a cheapest one from Logitech. All I can say is that this webcam is nothing but an expensive toy. Just guess what you can expect from a webcam with price tag of 20$. If you want a decent webcam,...

Well, at least you got accompanied softwares for free

VERY POOR QUALITY & GRAINY PICTURE

Logitech QuickCam Chat Webcam - White Blue

 

Well, I had the Logitech Quickcam Messenger for 3 years, but when I saw the price for this camera ($2.50 after all rebates) I could not resist. But I guess, you get what you pay for. On the improvement side (moving from Messenger to Chat), I can now...

Horrible in Low light

 

You get what you pay for here. This camera is horrible quality, and the adjustments don't make it much better. I have the quickcam pro and there is a huge difference between the 2. Tiger Direct will not accept a return on this, so i had to call...

Nice monitor mount, cheap price

Bad in low light like a bedroom. Very grainy and dark

Logitech QuickCam Chat Webcam - White Blue

 

The price is very good for daily use. The color is not sharp, a little bit yellow. Anyway that is what you can get for about 20$. The installation is so simple, I believe everyone can have the software installed without any problem. Logitech is also a...

Logitech QuickCam Chat Webcam - White Blue

 

You get what you pay for. This web camera is not expensive, and thus you cannot expect too much. As far as I can say, the performance is enough for daily chatting. More light is needed, otherwise the picture is dark. Considering the price, I am...

Not expensive, easy to install, compatible with MSN and Yahoo Messenger

Just ok performance, good light condition is needed
