Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision

This is one of the bulkiest webcams we've tested in recent memory (3.8 x 1.5 x 1.5 inches), but it makes up for its monster size by shooting extremely clean

Gold standard for webcam video quality. Easy access to major messaging and chat services

Clunky. Unstable monitor clip

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision SE Webcam

Just as early as the VideoPhone was breathing its last breath, the webcam was making headlines. Of course, those early headlines were usually (and rightfully) associated with the pornography industry, since there weren't too many people willing to look...

High Quality 1.3MP Images ; Excellent recording performance ; 640x480 Video resolution at 30 FPS ; Convenient snapshot and video buttons ; Unique balance-adjustable clip base ; Easy to install and use without effort ; Better than expected sound quality...

Software enhanced images (4MP) lack sharp clarity ; Video Effects software feature is unstable ; No built in IR LEDs to correct no-light environements

Even if I wanted to dwell on the only problem I encountered, the QuickCam Ultra Vision Special Edition rates praise. I really wanted to see myself as a talking Unicorn or Marionette, so I am very let down. Despite this, I cannot help but to be...

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision

If you frequently use a webcam and are looking for the best one available, I don't think there will be many other choices than the Ultra Vision. It's equipped with a large lens, comprised of five glass elements for the best image quality possible. When...

Superb quality... as far as webcams go ; Video quality is top rate, with up to 960*720 setting running at a smooth 15FPS ; Sturdy construction ; Fun avatars ; Compatible with Skype, Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, AIM (Includes avatars, should you use...

Pricey ($120), but should prove worthy if it you care about quality ; Avatars are somewhat clunky.. require good lighting and some patience ; RightLight also required tweaking but did its job pretty well. Don't expect a miracle though

Avatars was an aspect I wanted to play with right away though. It's the same feature I saw at CES that impressed me a -lot-. Basically, if you are having a bad hair day, had too many cupcakes, look like a real computer geek, are on the run or simply...

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision

Replaces your background with a stock photo, such as an image of the beach so you can fool your colleagues or some other nature based background. There are numerous images to choose from and you can add your own with little effort. I never got this one...

Compact Modern Design that’s flexible and adjustable ; Certified for Windows Vista integrates well with existing technologies built in to the OS such as Windows Photo Gallery and Moviemaker ; Supports a wide range of online and instant messaging...

Flexible rubber clip does look or feel 100% secure when fitted on top of LCD monitors such as Notebook computers ; Installation and configuration phases are bit too much; I just want to start using the device as quickly as possible ; 4 Mega pixel photo...

Recommended system requirements are needed to use Logitech RightSound or RightLight 2 technology features.

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision Webcam - Silver

What to say, I think this is the best quality of chat camera I have. I bought a couple of weeks ago to replace my old creative camera. It did an amazing job. The picture is very clear. You can easily zoom in and out. And the face tracking function is...

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision Webcam - Silver

don't get me wrong, the camera is quite nice. It is well built and feels sturdy. Did I say it was big? Good for desktop lcd monitors and acceptable for notebooks. Built in microphone works well, low light and normal light viewing is just fine. The...

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision Special Edition Webcam - Black

This was my first try at using a webcam. I bought one for myself, and one for my less technically savvy girlfriend. She's never had to ask for help. I'm impressed with the simple installation and plug-n-play performance. The software is quite good and...

Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision Webcam - Silver

This is a very nice camera and looks sleek on the monitor. It is way too bulky and heavy to be used on a laptop. The software is a breeze to set up but the mic has an echo sound - I am sure this can be corrected with a little tweaking but it's not a...

Heavy duty camera with a sharp picture

Expensive and too bulky for laptop computer
