The Microsoft LifeCam Cinema was purchased to be used as a cheap HD camera with two video editors: Corel Video Studio Pro X2 and Sony Vegas Home Studio Platinum Pro Pack. With Corel, I did not get HD performance. The Sony product does NOT support USB cameras at all. Back to Corel's editor, it was grainy and jerky and did not sync audio and video well at all. It seems that this camera is only for use as a communications camera such as Skype, Messenger, etc. It will not be useful for making videos. Note also that the microphone was not adequately picked up by Corel's editor except for one time. I don't understand how the software works in relation to the camera but don't like it and am returning the software and keeping the camera for Skype use. Plan to purchase a real video camcorder, like the Canon VIXIA HG21. But the video is very good, very sharp when used as intended.

Length:: 3:11 MinsSummary: It's a great product, but the software is lacking. It does require a lot of processing power to produce decent videos, so do everything you can to let the capture software have all of the processing power.For reference, I was using an AMD Athlon 64 XP Dual Core 6400+ CPU with 4GB of RAM when recording this video. I am running the software on a Windows XP 32-bit machine.This video was recorded with minimal software interference, but I'm also happy with the quality of the processing for low-light conditions. In this case, I was looking to get the best motion performance, so I turned off all of the auto features in order to get the best picture with the light I was using.As you will hear in the video, the built-in microphone isn't terrible, but it does have a pretty high noise floor. That is fine if you're using Skype, but lousy if you are trying to record higher quality videos. In this video, I used the Audio-Technica AT2020 USB Condenser USB Microphone (except for the built-in mic demo).All in all, it's a great webcam for producing online videos. If you don't have external software, or don't have a top of the line computer, there may be a webcam that does what you need without so much hassle. For high quality stuff, this may well be the best hardware on the market.

I was surprised after researching web cams, that there was a greater range of features that you can expect a cam to have. The Microsoft web cam installed into Windows 7 pro with no software driver support needed, there is the included Cd that has some extra tools, but you will notice that they will be out of date, and better left to downloading from the internet. The main purpose for this came was to host a ustream show, and it does a great job with that, and the auto focus feature is great. Skype and other web chat features are seamless (depending on internet speeds), and the 720P mode looks fantastic, but remember that 720P HD must be supported by the web/video provider. Next to that rest assured that this is a great product that can stand up to all of the other web cams with no issues.PRO's1. lightweight2. Glass covered lens3. Long USB cable4.

I record 5-10 minute videos for our church website for our parishioners and they look great using this camera. The software is very easy to use, does everything I need it to for simple video, Skype, and messanger. The picture quality and sound quality are great.The only down side is you need to make sure your computer meets the requirements to run HD video. On my two year old computer (Toshiba, 2 GB ram, average video card) I could only record very low quality video or it would skip and drop frames. This isn't Microsofts fault though, the hardware needs for HD quality are what they are.If you are looking for a camera, I highly recommend it!

Hi!I bought this camera to compare against the EyeBall 2.0 HD. Unfortunately, the auto features do not work very well on a Mac. I tried using this camera with a MacBook Pro, running OS X 10.6.2. The camera was recognized, and if used in place of the iSight, it worked well. However, if the light shifted or you moved the camera, it would not auto-anything and the picture would come in way too bright, way too saturated, or way too washed out.I am not a Microsoft hating, Mac Fan Boy (I use a MSFT wireless mouse 5000 on a daily basis). Just a guy trying to find a decent external web cam (with optical zoom if possible) to use with my MBP.I've read other places online that people have made this webcam work with their macs, but it appears it's only for Skype or vid-IM purposes.-j

This is by far the best webcam I have purchase. This thing work with all my computers including my Ubuntu Linux computer. Very good video quality for a webcam. I won't replace your HD camcorder but it does video web call very well. You will need a fast processor to run HD video on Linux and Windows.

A surprisingly good piece of equipment. Well made, small, elegant.Easy to install (Win7), works as promised, delivers clean pictures, works well in low light.Auto focus works very well also, you just set it and forget it!Built in mike is also good.Settings are rather limited but adequate (that is why I gave it only 4 stars), I really miss the face tracking option of my Creative web cam.At $50 it blows away cameras nearly twice the price, I definitely recommend it.

My computer is 5 years old with 1.5mb of ram running XP Pro. Upon initial startup, the software indicate that I had problems and would not tell me what to do.... I was frustrated and was going to send it back. However,I started to tinker around and I guess I found the right button and the image appeared on my screen. On my wifes new computer (Win7), the software loaded without problem and works great. I use the camera for Skype and the picture is sharp and the audio is good enough.

The cam I got auto focuses every 10 seconds, it completely blurs everything out then refocuses again. its a bug. its supposed to be addressed in the latest hardware patch. I patched the firmware and the cam still does it.Way to fix it? Turn off Truecolor in the options -> adjust the advanced properies, go into camera control and unclick auto focus, adjust it yourself. Yes this sucks because if you need the autofocus you no longer have it, but it makes the camera usable.. this gets 3 stars. halfway between completely worthless and a good HD cam. If you get one that works? for under 50 bucks, a decent deal.

My girl friend forced me to buy a good webcam and after postponing it for a few months I had to give in and upgrade my 5$ webcam with this. Got a very good deal on amazon.Ive been using it for the last 1 month and what Ive found out so far...Pro's-Excellent Video quality.Low light exposure is good.The stand is pretty easy to mount on a lappy and is stable too.Looks cool.ConsSometimes I see a smudge on the image,it clears itself in a second.Should have given a carrying case along. Overall, Id recommend it.My girlfriend just loves the image quality!! Maybe I shud start listening to my girl ;)

The camera it self work very good. The instalation of software it easy but never complete.I can't use the full power of software at all. Even after I search microsoft blogs on the subject an I download a new driver from (recomanded by) microsoft,stel the software refuse to fuly instal or work. I can use only Skype , no other similar programs work.Like usualy microsoft create problems to make you dependent on them. I bet you if I use theyr paid service, the problems will be solve. No more microsoft for me.With out Skype program I can't even use the camera at all.

I'm happy with this camera, good picture quality, set up was easy and it shipped fast. I thought this camera was a little on the pricey side, but it was worth it.

The cam images are clear and detail is good. The built in cam's resolution in my Dell laptop was too low, and in low light movement was jerky and worthless to use when trying to sign with a deaf friend on line. This one meets all expectations and allows me to communicate by signing, works great with Skype as well. The flexible mount allows it to attach to the screen on my laptop or sit on it's own base in just about place I choose. No buyer's remorse here!

This camera works very well, as advertised. It looks nice and produces outstanding video and still captures. Just one caveat: DO NOT try to run it through an external USB 2.0 hub, even a powered one. I experienced sluggish operation and regular crashes when trying to do this. When I plugged it directly into a motherboard USB 2.0 port, however, everything cleared up and it worked great. I can't say that it will fail to operate in ALL USB hubs under ALL circumstances, of course, but I had trouble with my setup, so beware of this.

I bought this camera so I could record internal training videos for my team, but it's an embarassment. There's no way that I would send out this captured video - it looks like the junk video one gets from an old mobile phone. Any motion results in horrible smear, and even on my brand new dual core Dell E6400 laptop the HD capture mode is almost unusable. If I wanted to lug around a dual quadcore server just to capture video, I'd be MUCH better off spending my money on any consumer video camera and hooking it up via firewire. In fact, my junky 10 year old Sony camcorder hooked up via the firewire port on the Dell looks ten times better at SD than any mode I've tried on this LifeCam gadget. The sound doesn't sync well with the picture at high resolutions, either.I guess maybe this thing is better than the free camera that's built into the Dell laptop, but not by much and certainly not worth the expense. When they said HD video, I assumed that one could actually move around while shooting, but apparently not. How was this thing ever released from Microsoft's QA labs? Do I need to hook up a $15,000 Dell R710 with a $30,000 RAID system in order to capture HD? (I'm actually going to try that next week to see if that's the problem...)

Got this camera for Skype calls with friends. Just plug in, adjust your sound settings so the default is the camera and you are ready to go. Works great. Video is excellent as is the sound pick up for audio.

I purchased this camera to replace an existing webcam (I use the camera as a security cam), and upgrade the picture quality.The picture quality is very good, and the camera's small profile is great.However ... motion detection requires a separate software, and the camera software conflicts with my motion detection software. The solution: using the existing motion detection software, and activating the camera thru that software, giving me a much better picture quality for security, but being unable to use the other features of the camera's own software (mainly, magnification). Ironically, the frequently changing "autofocus" feature, works fine, but sets off my motion detector - since it sees the re-focus as action. THAT forced me to use a 1 second delay in my motion sensor software.Additionally, I had to "block out" the blue dot that appears when viewing thru the window (my other camera had the power-on indicator on the top, and did not present this problem). However, the "block-out" of the blue light, using the field setting from the old software, works.Overall, because of the picture quality, I'm happy with the purchase, in spite of the "rigging".

The camera is definately high end;however it freezes constantly with Skype.The picture quality is good, when it works.It does not go into HD with Skype.The camera is horrible with low light, it basically is not useable with low light.I saved my horrible logitech easy/cool quickcam which works decent in low light, so at night I will swich to that camera.Had I paid $100 for this camera it would be returned.However, I got it off Amazon for $50 and it has the best technology so I believe my problem is not with the camera itself but with Skype.I would recommend this camera half the time.The other half of the time I want to throw it out the window.By the way, my laptop is pretty good, not highest quality but it's vista, Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2.0GHz, 250GB hard drive, and 3GB memory. If you have better specs and see this camera work better for Skype please review.Also, many people on here use Skype in low light and do not report problems. Why???

We were shopping around for a quality camera to skype with our family and friends. All of their videos appear pixelated and unclear. This camera gives you the best quality for sound AND picture. Everyone on the other side was impressed - and have now also ordered the same camera.When shopping, we found the logitech version at $100+ - but this camera for under $50 is a steal!Easy to setup, very easy to use - and the fact that it self adjusts makes it better.If you're shopping for a high quality web cam - this is your best bet at the absolute best price.

Much cheaper than the top end Logitech model and works great with Skype. It is MUCH smaller than I thought it was going to be which was a pleasant surprise.The only negative is there is no physical cover to block the lens to prevent accidental video transmission. My previous Logitech Quickcam had a cover which is nice because sometimes the camera is automatically turned on by a program or maybe you mistakenly click the "video call" button instead of the "call" button. It is also possible that someone else can turn on your camera if they have access to your computer for technical support or through LogMeIn type programs. Next thing you know, you are on Youtube picking your nose or something like that.
