Expert review by : Consumer Guide (howstuffworks.com)
The webcam market is old hat to Logitech, which has some of the sharpest designs of any manufacturer. We took a look at the high-end QuickCam Ultra Vision Special Edition and were duly impressed by the look it took at us.
High resolution, great software
Pricey

The camera has a very nice picture and handles lighting very well. Family members comment on how much nicer our picture looks than theirs. My two boys love playing with funny faces feature which places various graphical hats and glasses on their head....
It is a lot bigger than I expected, but the quality and features are worth it. Would have liked a privacy cover, but not a huge deal. Also does not sit very well when I hook it up to my laptop. This would not keep me from buying again, but may try the...

Good piece of hardware, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone planning on using Skype until it's actually compatible.
This camera takes clear videos, is easy to install, audio sounds pretty good, the bundled Logitech software is easy to use and comes with some pretty fun filters. Works seamlessly with Yahoo and Windows Live Messenger
I bought this because I was looking for a good camera to use with Skype. (There's a Skype logo on the box.) But within 3 to 5 minutes of starting a conversation on Skype, what I assume must be a compatibility issue between the camera driver and Skype...

Great picture with some nice basic software. Looks good on the top of my mointor
It could use a better means of attaching to the top of a monitor. Has taken a few falls. Think they should have sent a few inches of Velcro with it
Consumer review (newegg.com)
The unviversal clip is actually a very smart idea along with the side buttons for funtionality. What I found strange about the software is that once I installed it, my sound started becoming lower in pitch on my speakers. Maybe driver issues.
It does what you need it to when you need it to. Looks nice. Universal clip (bendable) manages to keep the camera in place with weight to keep it down. Clear picture. Software works without too much problem
When compared to the quick cam pro 9000 the 9000 seems to offer more. This ultra doesn't have the zeiss lens or autofocus or high quality video (30 fps). The 9000 has all of those plus higher resolution plus cheaper price. Right light tech effectively...

I bought 2 of these, one for a Vista machine and 1 for XP/sp2. Both were setup in a matter of minutes. Installed/configured Skype and that's it. Both WebCams were seeing each other, voice and video were clear as a bell. I highly recommend this product...

A) High resolution ; B) Compatible with my IM chat programs (Windows Live Messenger and Skype) ; C) Fun graphics-over-face software ; D) Built in microphone
A) Partial Vista support. Graphics-over-face software does NOT work in Vista however normal video works fine
Consumer review (newegg.com)
A 5 star rating has been reduced to 3 and maybe 1 if I don't get support...
Very nice camera..Attaches to the monitor very securly..Very good if not perfect picture quality...Easy to install...BUT
I have Bose USB speakers and once you plug the camera in, there is NO SOUND...I have double checked all my sound settings, disabled MOBO sound in BIOS,tried everything...I have gone to the Logitech site and there is a known issue with USB speaker set...

Great camera. I have had many other web cams and this by far beats them all. The microphone is also very good

Rebate is handled by different company. Im got their email confirmation so far.
Stylish design. Image is very good but not mind-blowing. Image quality enhancement. Glitch free installation in my XP. Avatar moves corresponding to user's facial movements and free avatar downloads
It sits stable on LCD display but could do w/ some sort of clamps. If used w/ a laptop try add padding to the leg and some velcro tapes. Priced a little high compared to others
