When I purchased this webcam, it said it was supported by Win XP service pack 2. After I got it, I found out that it was not compatible with Win XP 64 bit, no matter what service pack you had. Shortly thereafter Microsoft made a disclaimer that Win XP 64 Bit was exempt from the OS supported. AND Microsoft IS NOT going to fix the problem. Those of us who have XP 64, are just out there on our own. Poor customer support and planning on Microsoft's end.

I adore this camera! It was extremely easy to install, and I was pleasantly surprised by the image quality. Skyping is much better now than it was with my older Logitech camera. For the price, this is an extremely great value. A no fuss camera that works exactly as you'd want it to. I wish it was a tad smaller, but it's not much of an issue. I was glad to get a chance to test this out and my sister ended up buying the same one because she loved the quality as well. Not sure how compatible it is with Macs, but with Windows it worked beautifully.

When it first arrived it was much smaller then I expected which sort of worried me at first but have no fear sometimes good things "really" do come in small packages. I had the camera installed and up and running in about five minutes so even the least advanced pc newbie should have no problem with installation. The video, photo, and audio quality of this camera is the best I have ever owned yet and I've owned atleast ten different webcams over the years looking for the right one and I am pleased to say that the search is finally over! This camera also comes with some awesome software too! The software has visual effect features that can do all kinds of crazy stuff to your photos and videos that is easy for anyone to use. For example you can click one effect button and it appears like there are two of you in the video or photo. Overall there are about twenty crazy weird effects to play with and each of them only require one click of the mouse. Over all the simplicity of use and the quality of this webcam are awesome and I would highly suggest this webcam for beginners and experienced users alike!

good product, especially for filming!!! excellent quality! if using online web, better have a high speed line in order for the webcam to work at its best. if not, dont blame the webcam. low connection will result in low quality. in overall, definitely 5 out of 5.

I wanted to do a video review, as seeing is truly believing but didn't have a video fine saved...I bought this webcam along with the Logitech 9000 HD and this one by far is the BEST video cam I have ever used!! My boyfriend & I have a long distance relationship & practically live on Skype when we aren't together...well this cam definitely gets the job done!! We are having a blast with it just about every night & I STRONGLY recommend it to all seeking a great webcam for a decent price. The video & sound quality are both EXCELLENT & we are very happy we selected this one after checking out many others that just didn't cut it. The mount / attachment is extremely versatile & easy to clip. The Carl Zeiss lens is a major plus & the fact that it's made of glass. It ought to be ranked the BEST little webcam of all!! A SUPER AWESOME PRODUCT AT A GREAT BUY ~ THANK YOU!!Microsoft LifeCam Cinema!!

I just recieved this webcam yesterday, and I am at my wits end, first the download was a failure, thank goodness I called a buddy thats more techie than I am, he searched out an updated download for me and that did work, but I cannot get this webcam to work with Windows Live Messenger.I do get my video on my screen, the video looks great, the colors are amazing plus the fact it's widescreen, but when I tried to have a video chat using windows live messenger it's a no go, my friend and I tried everything to solve the problem and nothing helped, and worse of all, there is no way of finding tech support for this webcam from microsoft, first they want your PID (Product Identification Number) to see if they will charge you or not, but there is no product ID number, no where on the box or disc, just the S/N, Model Number and a Lot Number, and niether of those work as you need the Product Number, and there is no way on getting help from Microsoft to obtain one unless you call them by phone and of course for a charge, and that to me is a farce, the thing is less than 2 days old and I can't get any help without payment, they got to be kidding me.I know the camera works as I said before I do get my own image on my screen which looks great, but cannot video chat on-line, I'm so frustrated I'm getting ready to heave this thing out the window.

Nice product especially for the price. Thus far I have no problems with the web cam. I'd like to see it stay in focus while a person moves around, but when you move it goes out of focus for a short period of time.

I grabbed this cam when Amazon was selling it for around $48. I run it under Windows XP on a dual-core AMD system and use Skype for most of my video calling. The images from this cam are outstanding. Also, the digital sound is perfect, with no hiss or squeal that some have reported. I have found that the Skype high-quality video is perfectly supported by the camera, with about 25-30 frames per second. This produces a fine picture at the other end, one that can be expanded to full screen without degradation of the picture quality. Blurring is minimized by the high frame rate. The auto-focus works perfectly, with the ability to focus down to one inch from the subject. Low-light functionality is very good....one has to remember that this is a sub $50 webcam!! I know there is a method to hack the Skype config file to force Skype to push out all 720 lines of resolution....I have not done this successfully yet, but the normal Skype high-quality image is superior to anything I have seen from any other cam. This cam will support the full HD capability once Skype or some other application offers it. I did not load the included software, since native XP drivers support the cam.

The camera works great. It was easy to install, and easy to use. The only problem is when you move to fast, the camera spends a little time trying to focus, but it's still a good bargain for your money. Also, the video capture doesnt seem to play back very well. I recorded a 30 minute video and played it back and towards the end, the sound went out. Not sure why, but it might be an insufficient Ram problem with my computer. Either way, still a good camera.

I have been a Apple geek for a long time the only other computers I have ever bought was an IBM 10 mhz and a Dell poweredge server. I have been without a web cam for a while, I have used my camcorder (via firewire) for my video needs and decided to go to HD with this cam. I read the reviews and watched some of the Youtube vids and decided to buy it. I had my doubts about Microsoft, but for the first time I was impressed by the reviews.As usual the shipping was prompt. The product packaging seemed a bit excessive, but once out of the box the cam looked great. The camera hocked up to my Mac Mini (Snow Leopard) without any need to change any settings, Quicktime, iChat, Gawker, Macam, Skype no problem whatsoever. Parallels Desktop running Ubuntu picked up the cam without a problem also.I like the design and the size. The cable is plenty long and the mount is perfect. I can't find anything physically wrong with this camera. Good quality video for talking heads with some motion smearing and not the greatest in low light, but for the money you just can't beat the quality and performance. If all Microsoft products performed like this I would probably buy a lot more.

I had been looking for a webcam for my laptop and am so happy to have received this Microsoft LifeCam Cinema. After using this device for a few months now, I have to say it works great. I mainly use this to connect with my family via Skype and haven't had any problems so far.The webcam was easy to install and the software, while a bit lackluster, is fine for my uses. I really like the size of this model. It's not too clunky and it rests easily on my laptop with its adjustable gripper. Because of the gripper, if you need to move the camera around while skyping (to showcase a room, animals, etc)you can easily unclip it and then reclip again when your are stationary.The camera consistently gives me clean, crisp, widescreen images. I honestly can't say I've had a problem with this camera yet!If you need a easily portable camera for your laptop or computer, check this one out. It's worth it!

First the picture is super clear, second, it looks great because the frame is 16:9 style. I set this up on my PC at the office, I must have sold about 10 of them just by seeing how clear it looks when they are just walking by. Setting up the software is EASY, if you have WIndows 7 you plug it in an you are done. Windows 7 not only recognizes the driver, but it downloads all the software and installs it for you. This is some technology.Some HD handheld cams I looked at could easily go $3000+, this is a great inexpensive replacement for doing presentions or creating content.If you have a slow junky PC, you will get a slow junky picture most likely. If you are using an old PC more than 5 years old, replace it because 5 year old PCs and CPUs take up more electricity.

I was comparing webcams and saw that my friend had this same one. She recommended it and when I looked on the web, this webcam received the best rating for price and quality. The item arrived on time and I had no trouble installing the software. I am extremely pleased that it works. The picture and sound are clear; when talking to friends and family on Skype, I always get compliments on how good the picture looks and how clear I sound (which is great since I speak fairly quietly). I highly recommend getting this webcam!

I bought this Camera for 2 reasons:A) I wanted a newer, more up to date HD web camera andB) It was made by Microsoft.Having read the Specs and Reviews, knowing that my ISP Connection Speedsare 3MB D/L and 768 U/L and that I use Windows 7 and Live Messenger,I deliberately preferred this over the latest Logitech Full HD Cameraand have been well rewarded by my choice.The Video quality is good at "720", the camera performs well in low light conditionsand the microphone picks up well at reasonable distances.I would have preferred not to have to install the software but the process was quickand it is easy to understand and use. The Auto Focus feature is not an issue for me aswe don't have "kids bouncing around" while using it."I bought this camera "on sale" from Amazon for $50 with free shipping..a great deal for this camera.

Purchased as a capture camera on a secure non-internet system. Microsoft in their god-like wisdom decided to require an internet connection to simply load the drivers. Once again, You cannot even load the software without the internet. Might be a good camera. Couldn't prove it by me.

I bought this camera after looking through some reviews and comparing the features with similar cameras. It was easy to install. Picture and sound quality are great. I use it with Skype and my friends are impressed with the quality of the video and I am not even using the full HD mode, which is one of the several options for video quality. $50 I paid is the money well spent for this camera and I would definitely recommend it to others.

I had a Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 that would never work with win7. This worked right out of the box, as I expected it to. I haven't had any issues. I use it to skype and it works perfectly. For the price, this is a very good camera. When the logitech did work (for a minute or so) the quality wasn't as good as this, especially in low light.Glad I got over the Microsoft label and bought it. Usually, I don't buy Windows if I can help it. But, because of conflicts with win7 and Logitech, I was looking for something stable. This camera is better than I thought it would be and the software less intrusive than I thought it would be. I DO NOT use Windows Live. It is an option. You DO NOT have to use it.

I love this webcam. I was reading reviews, and everyone said it was awesome, but the reviews from people who used it on a Mac greatly varied (From a "must have" to a "get another product").So I bought the webcam and thought I could return it if it didn't work well on my Mac. I open it, plug it in, launch several different applications, and it works almost flawlessly. I'm using it on Mac OS X Snow Leopard, I heard that support on Leopard and Tiger isn't as good. I use it fine with BoinxTV, Dream Recorder, QuickTimeX, Skype, iChat and some other applications. For things like PhotoBooth, they expect a 4:3 (I think?) camera, so you are a little squished.The picture quality is awesome. It works well in low light and various lighting situations.I can't seem to get the 30 fps on my Mac, but for what I use it for, 15-24 fps is fine. I used it on both a macBook (2.16 GHz dual core with 2 GB ram) and an iMac (2.66 GHz dual core with 4 gb ram). Both of the computers used the webcam just fine.So how does it compare to the built in iSight? The iSight (the newer ones) can capture HD quality too (1280x1024; Lifecam Cinema 1280x720). The iSight is great if you have the right lighting conditions. In low light situations, there's a lot of noise and the colors aren't as vivid. With adequate light, the iSight is fine. So the Lifecam Cinema is awesome in the lighting situations that the iSight struggles in (like my dorm room).I really like this webcam. Works great on both Mac (tested in Snow Leopard) and Windows (tested in 7). Let's just say that I'm buying a few more of these for Christmas presents...

Bought this webcam to replace the HP webcam in my laptop that never worked that well. This camera has great features, easy to install, great low light performance and good color picture. The only drawback is that it occasionaly repeatedly goes thru the auto focus process when the picture is zoomed. Easily fixed by clicking the reset button in the tools menu or just operating in the normal view. I am running this camera on an HP2000 series laptop with a 2.0ghz dual core Intel processor and 2GB RAM with Vista.

I purchased this webcam a year ago and have been very pleased with the results. It's easy to use - just plug it in and go! The quality is terrific - I have the best picture of anyone I skype with. My only complaint is that it doesn't completely attach to the computer, so it can be wobbly sometimes.This is a great buy for anyone in the market for a webcam!

After making my first video with the LifeCam Cinema, I played it back and my ears were destroyed by a very high pitched static noise. I went into the settings to try and fix the said noise. I thought that maybe it was the noise cancellation making the high pitch sound, but there were no settings at all for the mic in the program... so now I'm stuck with a cam that completely drowns my voice out with an annoying high pitch screech...Other than that, the program itself is lacking and I think that they could have stepped it up a bit, but the cam itself is an okay cam. I like that it's HD, so that's definitely a plus.However, what's the point of making videos with it now ... when nobody can hear what I'm saying.Definitely a let down.
