Length:: 2:05 MinsOver the years, I've used a variety of webcams. The Logitech HD C615 Portable Webcam is my favorite to date. It has a strong feature set including: Full HD 1080p video capture (up to 1920 x 1080 pixels)720p HD video calling (1280 x 720 pixels) 8 MP Photos (interpolated), 2 MP (true)AutofocusBuilt in Mic (mono) with noise cancellationUniversal clip that fits laptops, LCDs or CRT monitorsFold-and-go tripod-ready webcam (Meaning that it is easy to take with you)Automatic low-light correctionVideo and photo captureMAGIX photo and video editing software1-click Facebook, Twitter and YouTube HD upload capability for videos (Facebook integration also adds the ability to upload photos but the others do not right now)Several video effects including fun filters, avatars, face accessories, video masks and a mask makerSkype integration for video callingHere is a link to the full technical specifications from Logitech: [....]Test Platform used: Windows 7 64 bit PC with a 2.8 Ghz Quad Core Processor and 6GB of RAMMy C615 webcam came with a 37" USB cord and a 39" USB extension cord (meaning that I got 76" of cord altogether). I was happy to see the extension cord. Often USB devices don't have long enough cords and then you're forced to buy an extension. It was nice to see Logitech had already thought of this. It would have been nice if it were just a bit longer since I have a tower case for my computer that sits on the floor but the USB cable was able to reach my USB hub just fine.Setup was very easy. After taking everything out of the box, I put the CD in the drive and followed the onscreen instructions. It took me a couple of minutes to get the camera to sit properly on the top of my Samsung monitor, but this was more due to the design of the monitor than the design of the webcam. My monitor has a curved lip on the top that is slippery and hard to place things on. It is by far the hardest monitor I've ever tried to mount webcams on. In spite of this, the rubberized lips of the webcam clung to it nicely and I was able to adjust the webcam quickly so that it was at the correct orientation for me when I'm sitting at my monitor. After that, I had the webcam working within just a few minutes. Logitech's software is simple and easy to use. I fired up Gmail and started a video chat with a friend. It recognized the camera immediately and even loaded the Logitech controls. I played around with the video effects and had his girls (8 & 10) laughing at the funny avatars that were easy to use within the Logitech software. I think the best thing that I can say is that it made me want to play around with it more. This camera comes with MAGIX photo and video editing software. I didn't install the MAGIX photo editing software because I do a lot of work with high end photography and I didn't want to risk it pote...
