    This webcam was a good purchase. I needed it for a class on google+ hangouts, and the set up was so easy. It came with an installation cd which i say was easy breezy. It is flexible and moves where you want it. The HD view is perfect, better than other flimsy webcams I have seen. I was opting for a more expensive one but I am glad I chose this one because I can do so much more with it than what I intended. I recommend this web cam above the rest although this is my first webcam that I have ever brought seperate from the screen.

    It was a toss up between this and the Belkin version. While they're all pretty even, the reason I went with this one was purely aesthetic. The reason I wish I went with the Belkin is because of Microsoft's stupid integration policies with their other features. I don't use MSN's chat features. I bought this unit solely for Skype and Google+. I had to go in and manually disable an automatic boot-up of Microsoft Instant Messaging.

    The image is fine, seems to work okay in low light situations, so I have no problems with the actual unit, just the software package included and necessary.

                      • A:

                        It works with Windows 7, Vista or XP with at least a dual Intel PC running at least 1.6 GHz. The head on this camera tilts left and right, but not up and down. It has digital zoom, but no optical zoom. The frame rate is 30 frames per second and supports recording 16:9 widescreen video in 720 pixel. It is a 4 megapixel camera. It appears to have just a usb cable with a built in uni-directional noise-canceling microphone with no separate sound cord.
