This review is from: Logitech Quickcam Pro 3000I don't know much about webcams so I can't give you a professional opinion. This is the first webcam I got and I wanted something that wasn't too expensive, but still high quality. I went to [stores] and had the people working there give me some recommendations and opinions. I had also researched a little online on different webcams, prices, quality, and video resolution. I finally came and decided to buy this one. It was a little more expensive than what I was originally willing to spend on, but I have to admit, the quality and picture is crisp and clean. It even fixes difficult lightening situations and automatically corrects. It also comes with a lot of software for you to edit your pictures, or create a card and send to family and friends. It took me about 5 minutes to set up as well. All I had to do was install the software, plug in the USB cord, and the program box popped up and I was ready to go. I give it 5 stars for good quality, easy installation, and useful software. I'm actually glad I spent a little extra money. I don't want to waste my time by getting a bad quality, cheap webcam and being disappointed and eventually going out and spending even more money to get a good one. If you have the cash, GET THIS ONE!!
This review is from: Logitech Quickcam Pro 3000I went through a couple of webcams before I got this one, so I think I am qualified, at least as an amateur user, to comment on the pros and cons of the Logitech Quickcam Pro 3000.The Pros:1. The installation was easy--worked like a charm on the first try. That's a plus when working with any peripheral device and Windows operating systems.2. The software that comes with the camera works well, too. It allows you to capture, edit and enhance a video.3.It is cute-looking. Very sleek.4. It has a built-in microphone that works well.The Cons:1. Only medium to high light will give you good videos. Low light is out of the question. Before you say, "Well, I am not doing any low-light video work" think about backlight. That is, if you have a bright window, the room may be too dark by contrast to get a decent image. 2. The stand is poorly designed. It is hard to adjust the camera to just the right position. The long cable hanging from the back tends to drag the camera away from how you settled it. The stalk at the base of the camera that inserts into the stand is not easy to work with--tends to twist from the position you set it. 3. It is not ideal for NetMeeting. This is because it is defaulted to zoomed mode, which means you have to be further away from the camera--giving a fuzzier picture. The camera adjustments available in the Logitech drivers are inexplicably NOT available within NetMeeting, including the zoom setting. What a pain that is. So, for NetMeeting, I cannot recommend this particular camera.If you want to do online gabbing, video back and forth with the grandkids on the weekend, or try your hand at a few video-web ideas, this camera is good performance for the price, and nearly anyone can get it up and running easily. But for harder tasks such as NetMeeting and low-light, or any critical positioning, this is not a good choice.
This review is from: Logitech Quickcam Pro 3000Throw away the base that comes with this camera. Both the QuickCam Pro 3000 and QuickCam Pro 4000 cameras attach to its Logitech base with a little pin at the bottom of the camera. Simply unscrew this pin from the camera to remove it. Purchase an inexpensive standard 4" mini-tripod from a hanging rack in any good camera store (Ritz, National Camera Exchange, etc.) and screw the tripod into the camera. Best Buy only carries mini-tripods that don't have universal movement. Look for one that has a ball head, which will allow you to easily rotate and tilt the camera, locking a twist-pin when you are happy with your setting. No more problem with the camera popping off its base, or the heavy USB cable weighing it down and moving it out of your preferred adjustment. I bought a Quantaray brand from Ritz, but I'm sure there are many brands. The mini-tripod won't cost more than a meal for two at Burger King and you'll decide you absolutely love the camera, once these 2 little annoyances are finally the way they should have been designed in the first place! (I bought the 4000, so I'll post this message there as well.)
