When will I learn? The software install caused me to have to reinstall Win 7 because it caused USB hub device faults every few seconds. This camera is small and sharp but occasionally hunts for focus for no reason. Tried 3 different Microsoft Cams and they each exhibited some unacceptable hardware or software problem. Lifecam 5000HD and Show high end cams too were useless and produced problems. All of these model drag down the CPU. Low or no hardware acceleration.Installed the Logitech Webcam 9000 Pro and viola! No Issues!!!Microsoft Does It Again. My advice is to steer clear of this product. This is not the first time I've encountered Microsoft hardware not working well with their own operating system or office applications. I'm just about ready to throw in the towel and get a mac.Bottom line: try Logitech instead. they have more robust hardware, fast, stable and feature rich software.

There have been plenty of reviews on this cam and as usual they are all over the place.So here is my quick experience out of the box.The end of the USB is covered with a label that says Install Software First!So lets see what happens. I plugged it in anyway, XP found it and installed it. First I went to Windows Explorer and opened it up directly. Worked fine. Great picture for a little cam. I tried some other software I had for a different device and it recorded just fine with this cam. In just a few seconds it was up and running without installing the software.I like the look and love the little stand/clip. The fact that it bends you can use it as a stand on your desktop or clip it on the top of your monitor. I just hope it lasts with all the bending!But this is just another device marketed to "cam" with other people using Oprah's Skype or something. I'm not into that. I actually use these for monitoring through my website. I haven't set this one up yet so I don't have feedback on that yet. But if you are looking for a basic cam that has good picture quality and its own flexible stand this is a good one at the right price.

I just want to start out and say that this is a REALLY great webcam. Of all the webcams I have used in the past, this one blows them out of the water. The standard quality is more than anyone can ask for, and Skype calls are crystal clear. Movement is captures very well. There is a small delay, but only noticeable during fast movements. The typical users would never notice.Why did I give it 4 stars? The HD quality is fantastic, but it does come at a cost. I own a quad-core processor with 4GB's or ram. My computer is VERY fast and can handle nearly any program you throw at it (I'm a web programmer and designer). This camera WILL take up the majority of your resources when capturing the HD video. My quad-core is hovering at about 40% cpu usage when the HD camera is running. Standard definition works without this additional load.I recommend this camera to ANYONE that has a Pentium 4 and above. I only recommend using the HD capabilities if you are running a high-end dual core or any quad-core processor.This was my first review of any product. Please be gentle ;)

The Microsoft lifeCam is great. I like it so much that I bought a second one for a friend! Easy to install. Also qLifeCam software is very good. Also easy to mount on a flat screen monitor!

It's probably a good web cam, probably that's why many people bought this from CompUSA and all the orders got canceled and wiped out of Amazon's system. So there is no way to give negative feedback on Seller's Performance. And I'm hoping that manufacturers will consider Compusa and Circuit City, currently owned by Tiger Direct as a vendor for their merchandise and not only for this reason.

This is my second Life Cam camera. I sent the 3000 to my brother to use with Skype. I got this one to step up a few models thinking the quality would be much better. If you don't have at least 2 gigs of ram stick with a cheaper camera you won't see the difference. The software for this camera did not work either. Try to boot it up and it would freeze-up. Might be because I only have 1 meg of ram in an 8 year old Dell!Update: Switched PCs. Now I have a 2gig machine with dual core processors. Camera looks a lot better now. I still removed the software that came with it. Works a lot better now. You can really tell the difference between the cameras. Worth the cost difference!

I've not bought the LifeCam yet. I do want to post a notice about the 'Name' - The "720p HD" web vidcam. Everyone needs to understand the "wide-screen" - and HD, "Hi-Definition", have nothing to do with one another. Microsoft does spell all this out 'later' in the geeky sub-specs (that most don't read). 720i or 720p is 'very' respectful "hi-Def", but it's not really 1080p (or 1080i quality) HD.What (both) the 720 and 1080 digital formats do offer is "16:1 Wide-Screen" video capture - sort'a like (old) 'Cinemascope' movies.Microsoft did do a respectable job of explaining all this - "if you keep reading (long enough)". Being sort of a geek myself, and based on the specs provided, it looks like this is going to be a popular vidcam that offer some 'real' improvements in imaging quality. But watch out on the knock-offs! They are very crafty at misrepresenting products by misusing numbers, 'titles(like HD)' and specs, while being careful not to tell you a (obvious) lie.RGH

I bought this primarily as a webcam, but I've found that it produces excellent (and by that I mean super-freaking-phenomenal) audio quality with Skype. Nowadays, I primarily use it as a Skype mic. Maybe overkill, but it's excellent -- my voice is crystal clear even sitting about 24-30 inches from the mic.The mic also does an excellent job of filtering out ambient noise. On one call, I could hear my neighbor mowing his lawn and I was concerned as the noise was bothering me. But when asked about it, my conversation partner on the other end of the line heard nothing of the like.

What I needed was a webcam I could use to talk with and see my grandson in Seattle. I have a webcam on my computer but this is so much nicer. My grandson loves to talk to his Gramma with this device and I would recommend this webcam to all grandparents, everywhere.First of all, the webcam arrive nicely packaged. The directions were clear and it was easy to set up.I discussed timing of our first webcam visit with my daughter, and I practiced at home. The evening arrived,my grandson came in loud and clear. He looked so cute. I found for our use that the microphone was perfect.My grandson has a low soft voice, but I could understand him clearly, and he me.We webcam weekly and have become old pros. I can watch my grandson as he grows. I can read him a bedtime story. We keep in touch, and we love it.Now on to chatroulette. I think not:-)Recommended. prisrob 04-13-10Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000 Webcam

I'll admit it; I did not intend to use the lifecam as a web chat camera but as a camera for showing outside views from my cabin. Like other webcams this camera is nearsighted - but worth a try. Unfortunately, driver software cannot be pre-downloaded for install on a different machine(I tried). When I tried installing the drivers - the software insisted that I be connected to the internet. I did - via my 56K modem - but the driver install software would not recognize the connection and therefore would not install on my XP dual core machine! (Hey, my browser worked just fine). So ... I installed a Logitech quick cam pro 9000 instead. No problems and it looks great. Microsoft is way too controlling.If you need a webcam for Skype or web chats consider this camera - it's probably very good for that purpose.

I use webcam for Skype and I thought that my laptop's (HP dv2000) built-in webcam was pretty good, but then I tried this Microsoft LifeCam Cinema. I was very impressed by the difference in picture quality.In a relatively low-light indoors environment, Microsoft LifeCam provided a significantly better quality picture with practically no grain, and it picked up a lot more of the detail on the background than laptop's built-in camera . The auto-focus feature works flawlessly, and the audio is good. I also enjoyed the various effects (big nose, square head, etc.) that the Microsoft software added. The camera and the included software are very good at recognizing face and identifying eyes, nose, and mouth and then applying effects of your choice to just those parts of the face. Some effects add wigs or masks and they move almost perfectly in sync with the head creating an illusion that you are wearing them.The installation of the drivers was quick and simple, everything worked right out of the box. The camera is attractively styled. In my opinion, this is a great product.

I bought this webcam to create videos for my blog, YouTube, etc. I just ordered a Logitech webcam and when it comes, I'll be returning this one. Why?It has an automatic light adjustment features that starts the video out bright, then readjusts it. This means that the light changes after about a second and I have to edit out the first second of every video! That's really annoying.In the evening, with compact fluorescent lights (3 of them), the video is always too yellow. Even going into the settings and making it brighter wasn't satisfactory.Finally, I don't like the wide screen. I'm not sure I'm going to find a good quality webcam without it, but it makes it almost impossible for me to get a professional-looking background; I'd have to cover up 3/4 of my office!If you just want the webcam to make video calls, it's fine. The clarity is good. But if you want to create high-quality videos, try elsewhere.

I've used a LifeCam for a month or so now. It works well. It's easy to toss onto my laptop or pose on the desk, using the built-in adjustable stand. The software is simple to use and integrates with Microsoft Live pretty seamlessly. Image quality with good lighting is wonderful for the price; however, if you're stuck with dim incandescent lighting, the picture quality deteriorates rapidly and becomes grainy.The microphone is fairly sensitive. The audio it captures is passable, especially for voice communication -- it's not studio quality (not that you'd expect that), but it's also not among the worst computer mics I've heard. You don't sound like you're in a closet full of cotton balls.In all, it's a great little camera for general computer use.

I was a bit leery after reading some reviews about problems some buyers had loading the software, but my experience was completely trouble-free. All one has to do is follow the instructions exactly. Don't jump the gun and try to get through it too fast. It will only take a few minutes, so don't rush it. After it was all set up, I found the camera to be amazing quality, especially in the low light environment I'm in at my computer, and my Skype friends were equally amazed at the clarity and quality of the video. This is the real deal. I'm sure there are cameras out there that are just as good, and maybe some that are better, but I don't think there are web-cams out there that are a better value. Highly recommend this camera.

Good product. No real complaints, other than the annoying Windows Messenger button on the top. Kind of annoying if you accidentally press it. Works well with Skype, but you do not get the full 720 when you use Skype. Meh. Whatever. Complain to someone else if that's a really big deal to you.

I just picked this up from Amazon for $49 which is an extremely good deal (cheaper than the company discount). All I had to do was plug it in, and Windows 7 automatically installed the drivers for it and the latest version of the Lifecam software. I don't think there's such thing as an easier installation.The software is pretty barebones. It just records video and takes pictures. There's not much else that it does. You can add effects to your videos which can be pretty entertaining, but I'm sure other companies all allow the same thing.I mainly use the camera for video calls in Skype and the quality is great. My voice comes out very crisp and clear in Skype like I am sitting in the room with the person. Though I've heard that this might be Skype's great software that makes it sound so well, nonetheless, it works without a hitch. The other fun thing is you can add effects to your video through the lifecam effects software, while being on Skype video call.The lowlight works well too. This camera is a LOT brighter than my old Lifecam VX6000. From doing a lot of searching on the internet, this is very compareable to the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000, which runs for 50-75% more, so this was definitely the webcam to pick up.

We have a Chinese girl staying with us who is going to UNR (University of Nevada, Reno) and she uses Skype to talk to her parents just about every night. She does it with her MacBook, well was doing it with her MacBook, until the motherboard went south and she bought an older PowerBook with no iSight camera.But she does the bulk of her work on a Dell PC in her room. The Dell monitor has no camera, so I ordered this for her and it works a treat. Her parents halfway around the world tell her that now she is always in focus, they can see her in even low light and the colors are move vivid. She loves it, her parents love it and the three of them claim that it's way, way better than the iSight camera that was on her MacBook.If you have a built in camera on your monitor or laptop, then you don't need this, but if you don't, Microsoft has priced this one right and it does the job in spades.

Had to return the first one I purchased due to the auto focus not working. after some research found out I was not alone. But I must say, the wait was worth it. Amazon sent out another one and it works perfectly for my Skype needs!

Aesthetics:1.) This is a really great looking camera as it's design and shape makes it look much more professional than the typical notebook cameras outhere.2.) It sits very well on my laptop. Doesn't wobble or fall off.Use/Function:1.) I use Skype, so I can't comment on any possible provider difference for video chat, but if you are talking to someone with a good connection they can see you (and you yourself in a small window) VERY clearly. The quality of sounds and video is amazing. HOWEVER, if there are connectino problems, this camera isn't going to "fix" them with its superior imaging quality, as slow signals have sometimes shown me (to the person on the other end of the conversation).2.) The widescreen capability is really a great feature. Many times I've had to "squeeze in" family member and/or friends when chatting with someone far away, this time it provides a great view where everyone can comfortably be seen.Overall: For the price of this camera and for it's simple functinoality this is a really great unit!

Arrived quick and was easy to install. Picture quality is HD superb. I have used it many times with Skypes video calls and everyone tells me the picture quality is great! Users need to know that this camera and its functions are memory hungry and the computer that it is used on needs to have plenty of RAM installed. I have 2.5 gig of RAM and I still have to close all open programs as well as some of my tray apps to get the best performance. If I had 4 gig of RAM, I'm sure the processor functions would improve. I have a desktop pc with a duel processor, but others recommend a quad for best performance. With that said, I am not really having any problems using this camera for Skype calls.
