Hercules Dualpix HD webcam review

Finally a mighty webcam that is small on price

Cheap ; Ready for any application that supports a video input ; Impressive quality

Multi-mount clip could be more than effective ; Range of movement is limited

Particularly cheap in price but the overall quality is more than adequate

Hercules Dualpix HD webcam

Hercules' latest webcam joins a relatively overcrowded market, so it's lucky that it has a few features that set it apart from similarly priced units. It's particularly cheap at only £27, which would immediately suggest a deficit in terms of features...

While it works 98 % of the time

Most of the Cons are justified by the price. As expected this web cam did not work on my Ubuntu Linux box. I regret now i did not invest more money for a better web cam.

Overall cam design is good, it stands on it's own or on the screen well. Easy position adjustments ; Reasonable cable length. Comfortable sharpness adjustment

Occasionally flicks between bright and dark ; unstable software, caused blue screen crash on Windows Xp 2 times in a span of one week ; shows slight imprint on the lens. Not ideal for skype, the bandwidth and frame rate was bad with the combination of...
