This is a nice webcam that gives a high quality image. It took two minutes to install on Win 7 and has worked flawlessly since.

The product says "high definition video capabilities" but what it looks like is nothing close. Poor video quality. Installation in windows 7 was easy, the "automatic face tracking software" is slow, and I definately didn't see improved video quality in low-light conditions. This is 5 year old technology and the box mine came in looked like it had been kicked around the Amazon warehouse for the same 5 years. I knew I was in for trouble when I opened the Amazon box and saw the package was kicked in with an offer that expired 3 years ago for free emoticons. Wish I hadn't opened the retail packaging, I would have returned this in a second.

I've never actually seen the LifeCam I purchased. I had it sent directly to my daughter, who lives 3 hours away, so that I can keep in touch (through Skype) with her and my 5-year-old grandson. Since she plugged it in, it has brought them closer to me. It is almost like being there! The picture is clear and the sound is perfect. Best money ever spent!

When will I learn? This camera consistently hunts for focus every 10-15 seconds. Tried 3 different Microsoft Cams and they each exhibited some unacceptable hardware or software problem. Lifecam Cinema and Show high end cams were useless and produced problems on my Win 7 system that caused me to have to reload the operating system because of their software.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.

Product did not work out of the box. Messed around a couple of hours to no avail. Sent it back and got a prompt refund from Amazon. Ended up buying a Logitec which installed easily and performs great. My advice is to remember that you get what you pay for.

After reading the reviews on this camera and many, many others, I decided to purchase this one. Actually, I purchased 4 of these to give to grandparents and other family members so that they could all see and talk to our daughter.I have been very happy with it's performance. The clarity is really quite surprising and the sound is clear. Now you have to remember that it's a web cam and you should not expect crystal clear video as if you are watching something on TV. That being said, it is more than sharp enough for purposes of chatting with family members. It does have a little lag and blurring when you move quickly side to side, but I don't find that a problem.It also does quite well in low-light situations and even when there is a large amount of backlight.Included Software: As others have said, DO NOT install the included software! My mother-in-law made that mistake and had to have an IT tech come to her house to remove it all. Once it's on your computer it is very difficult to remove. I unpacked the camera, and just plugged it into the USB port without any software. My PC recognized the camera and found the drivers it needed within about 2 minutes. I then downloaded and installed the Skype software from their site and I was up and running immediately thereafter. The entire process, including Skype registration took about 10 minutes.Honestly, I wouldn't hesitate to use this camera for business conferences either.If you think you need a crystal clear image, you might want to look for one of the really expensive cameras, but for the money, I don't think you can beat this one. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the incredibly messed up inculded software issue.

Bought this camera for skyping and have found that it is providing my receivers a very nice clear image and clear sound.I found the camera very easy to install and use. One note on using it while skyping is I found I could not run the Microsoft LifeCam software at the same time (as it is set up to use Windows Live(tm) Messenger) - once the Lifecam software was shut off, I had no problem skyping. Once the camera software is installed (and then shut off), basically any time you want to use the camera for skyping just plug it in and use. Only thing I find a little "clunky" is securing it to the top of the laptop..as it doesn't actually clip on, rather rests there according to how you adjust it. This being said, once you do adjust it, it is secure, just getting it just right on top of a laptop is a bit awkward. Although this is a little awkward, I do still like the flexible stand as it provides me several options of where and how it rests.All-in-all this is a nice camera at a good price.

I have been a loyal customer of Logitech for years; I own everything from Logitech speakers to headsets, remote controls, mice, keyboards, webcams and more. They have time and again proven to produce quality products that last a long time. When it comes to Microsoft consumer electronics and peripherals, my experience is a bit more limited. I have owned keyboards and mice, both of which have performed decent over the years, but poor reviews have kept me away from several Microsoft products. When reviewing this product, my hope was that Microsoft could WOW me with what it had to offer.Microsoft's LifeCam VX-5000 is an affordable and easy to use webcam. The installation process was simple. Instead of using the bundled CD, I went straight online to Microsoft's site and downloaded the current drivers. Within several minutes I was up and running.Similar to Logitech's offerings, the LifeCam's included software provides tweakable settings such as color adjustment, white balance, and zoom. Another similarity with Logitech is that it offers fun effects that children and adults alike may find fun.Pros- Price- The flexible base can be attached to monitor or set down on desk.- You can record video, as well as take still photos- Works with both Windows Live Messenger & Skype (Perhaps others too, but did not test)- Built-in microphoneCons- The camera cannot capture quick movements, resulting in blurs. Likely a result of low frame rates- While installing the CD, the computer can freeze up and the installation sometimes needs to be canceled.- It doesn't have full screen.- You must talk loudly and close to webcam's microphone. It seems like it has a weak directional mic. This is good and bad. It won't pick up the noise around you, but you will need to get up close and personal with the mic for you to be heard.- Video quality is not the best at a resolution of 640x480 - however, what can you really expect?For those of you shopping for a basic webcam, this would be a decent choice. If you do decide to purchase this, I would recommend buying a separate headset to go along with it. If the quality of video is a concern to you, I would step up to the Logitech Quickcam 9000, or other Logitech offerings. The quality of video you get from this webcam will by no means be comparable to what you would get with a camcorder. Nonetheless, this is a solid performer the budget-conscious shoppers.

Very good especially for used. Came in cardboard box and works just like the one I bought new. The disc isn't really even required and disc doesn't work with windows 7. Very good plug and play and works with windows 7 just not disc software.Took less than 5 minutes to setup skype and now have microphone on computer

I gave it one star on two items because the software will NOT install on my Windows XP box which is a 2.8 ghz with 1 gig of ram, more than it needs to make effects. Tried several times to no avail.

The WebCam was very easy to install and works well. I have experienced problems with changing background light. Going to Video settings and changing brightness corrects the problem until changes reoccur due to sunset, increased shadowing, et al. I am, however, satified with the product.LifeCam VX-5000 (Green)

Had problem installing it on my computer. Everything seemed fine, but just can't see the video in MSN or other IMs. The Lifecam application says no cam connected. Contacted MS, and the technician told me it can't work on computer with more than 3GB RAMs, while my PC has 6GB RAM. How ridiculous it is! On its website and manual, it's never been mentioned about this issue.Keep in mind, MS' website says this is new cam, which came out early this year, but it still can't support more than 3GB RAMs. Most laptops and desktops nowadays have 4GB RAMs at least. It seems MS only makes something that they don't want people to use.

First off, the camera works well, even in low light conditions. The image quality is clear, and runs well on my laptop that just meets the minimum requirements. It doesn't sit well on the laptop monitor. An HD-6000 would be more appropriate, since it's a laptop cam. I didn't want to wait for it to hit the shelves, so I purchased the HD-5000 instead. Unfortunately, the lifecam software is not working with Windows 7 x64. Microsoft has created a Windows 7 driver (32 bit) that is supposed to be compatible with x64. The software doesn't run on a clean install of Windows 7. I am hopeful that I can resolve the issue, I'm usually capable of fixing most computer issues, but this one has me stumped so far. Internet searches highlight the same outcome. It should be noted that the camera still functions fine, but the software with the 'extras' doesn't function.

I bought the camera about 6 months ago and I have been using it with SKYPE daily. No problems so far. The picture quality is great, sending and receiving, and it adjust to lighting with no problem. The built in microphone is great because it gives you the freedom to roam around while talking and still pick up your voice from anywhere in the room. The software installation took longer than average to install, it is nice and easy to use and has fun tools to make the picture looks funny. However be wanrned it takes a really long time to load up. The Camera mounted easily on my laptop screen and the ability to turn it left and right while mounted is very useful. I'm really happy with this product and I do recommend it.

The camera is definitely a good value for the money. It is easy to install and use, great fit on the laptop with an adjustable cam (up/down). The picture and sound quality is what I expected - not perfect, but for the money its a good bargain.

I bought this for my pre-teen daughter for Christmas. It installed easily on an old Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz system, and she loves it. Her friends love it too, and they're jealous because theirs (different brands) don't work as well, so I guess it's good! She loves modifying her images with the software, so that seems to work well too.

...so you can get it out of the package more easily. I never saw a more difficult package. What is the point? Who benefits from this kind of packaging?I would like to have a way to turn off the microphone and/or turn off the camera by a physical switch somewhere within inches of the lens, but I don't find anything like that. And no, having the ability to unplug the USB doesn't suffice, in my opinion.I ordered this camera in the color blue, which means there's a blue stripe around the perimeter of the lens housing. When you look at the camera eyeball to eyeball, it looks black, and the flexible support device that attaches it to your monitor (or whatever) is black.The picture looks really good for such an inexpensive camera. The microphone works fine and doesn't echo the speakers.

This is a great little camera for very little money. It is fantastic in low light conditions (has no problem capturing my black dog in a dark room!) and very responsive to movement. I use it with Skype, so I assume the microphone works well as I've had no complaints on the other end. It's small and unobtrusive enough to leave it sitting on top of my laptop when I'm at my desk. The bendable grip works pretty well (at least if I'm not moving the computer around too much), and it's nice that it's so easy to adjust the field of view by a simple twist of the camera. The one annoying thing is that the button on the top - which is hard to miss when adjusting the camera - only works for Windows Live. Overall, I am very satisfied with this camera and would highly recommend it to others.

Nice videocam for the money. A far cry from the early webcams, good color, good sound. A little choppy with movements, but within tolerating limits.
