Pros: -The flexible stem of the camera is more useful than I thought, it gives the camera a near gyroscopic view of the surroundings.-The camera also comes with 4 LED lights on the side, and their brightness is adjustable. It is very handy when lighting is not optimal in your area!- The quality of the camera is way better than ones in-store, and the microphone comes in handy.
Cons: -The suction cup on the bottom only sticks for 30 seconds on a really smooth surface. -The key and clip were not that useful. It is redundant to have both. The clip and base seems rather fragile as well-The base is really light, and the camera will fall over if it is tilted too much!
Other Thoughts: -The button at the top doesn't do anything...faulty wiring maybe?-The microphone is a bit too insensitive. -The cord is a bit shorter than what I need it to be. It is a little under 1m.
Bottomline: This is definitely worth the price. I have been constantly using it, and everyone compliments on the nice quality of the camera (and the person!). The light also comes in handy whenever there's no flash light around. The LEDs are really bright too! I can see around the room in the dark with just the 4 LEDs.
Pros: 1) Very good quality camera2) Very good microfone3) Ability to direct the camera and the mic4) Elevated stand5) Vista and XP detected it without drivers6) I pluged and turned on MSN and it was working great7) The Let really does the trick for talking with the lights turned off
Cons: 1) Led can be very annoying sinte it it really bright (but you can turn it down or turn it off)2) The base of the device is very badly projected (the idea is good)3) The suction thing on the base does not work, not even on glass. After a pouco of minutes it will lose suction4) If you bend too much camera it the base if not heavy enough to keep it straith, it will fall.5) The key looks very fragile, but it has not broken yet.
Other Thoughts: if you like the way it look buy it, it is a very good camera.
Bottomline: Great buy but I expected more from the base of the device. If you are going to use it in your desk right next to the PC and you don´t have a lot of stuff that can hit the camera you will be fine.
Pros: works under windows though you may have to try several USB ports to find 1 it "likes." Under windows it gives a pretty hi-res picture and sound works well also.
Cons: DOES NOT WORK under linux Ubuntu 8.10 NOR under Ubuntu 9.04(jauntyJackalope) Other reviewers claim it works with no extra tweaking under Linux.either they lie or are mistaken.I have ALL the proper Linux camera drivers and tried switching between them to no avail.
Other Thoughts: my linux cam monitor claims the cam is on when I click the video button in cheese webcam program.BUT i get NO freaking picture, just the snow screen it gives you when it cannot connect to your cam device.Which means this thing IS NOT driverless UVC class device, no matter WHAT the box and the website claims
Bottomline: don't buy if you use Linux unless you are VERY SURE it will workwith your particular distribution
Pros: -Just plug and play. It`s driverfree!-You can turn on four LED lights with a little wheel on the wire. You can also dim them.-The flexible neck-good picture quality
Cons: -The suction cup does not work. There is sort of a plastic key which fit in the stand of the camera, to open the clip to let the stand suc on a surface. But it does not work at all.-I am asking me if it is necessary to have another jack for the microphone. Can`t it be just one?-Package arrived a bit bruised, but the camera was not dammaged.
Other Thoughts: A bit too much of plastic for me, but for this price.
Bottomline: If you need a good webcam just buy it! You can`t go wrong with this item and only 15 bucks. It is definitely worth the money!
