Microsoft LifeCam review

 

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 is Microsoft's answer to higher-end Webcams, such as the Logitech QuickCam Fusion and the Creative Live Cam Voice . The LifeCam VX-6000 adds some interesting features that we've not seen before on a Webcam, including a...

Flexible stand; adjustable camera; call button launches contacts; can post photos to blogs through software.

Call button gets in the way while adjusting; must install Windows Live Messenger; subpar video effects; delay in starting video.

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 offers unique features such as the ability to post photos directly to a blog, but its video effects and image quality don't stand up to that of competing Webcams from veteran manufacturers.

Microsoft LifeCamVX-1000

 

Microsoft's eye-catching entry-level webcam. Does it do all it says it can?

Live blogging (only to Windows Live Spaces), one-touch e-mailing, sturdy build

Extremely overpriced, additional software needed to work with Vista, retention clip doesn't secure the camera well, poor audio quality

A few problems, but good overall

 

Bought two of these webcams to keep up with my husband over Skype while I'm away. The CD that came with one of the webcams simply would not work: had to get on the phone with Microsoft to download the right software. Since then, everything's been just...
