Re: Whats the best web cam ?
logitech is a good brand for webcams buy if you are planing on doing webchat hosting you could get a camcorder with a video capture card...
Re: Whats the best web cam ?
I have a $59 logitech. It's the only one that works now, but quality sucks. I have a Sony camcorder, zoom, pan tilt all the bells and whistles, cost 1,450. Worth every penny, i can do videos stills etc. But that is the one that fell off while i was doing cam, and the pictures are messed up now. But i love the sony, very small and nice when you take care of it, like i did not.

Re: Whats the best web cam ?
I started with a cheap logitech too....then moved on to a not to expensive sony camcorder and a dazzle video capture do hickey...
I found customers on video chat were looking for a bit better quality than a webcam was giving, and the zoom feature is a big advantage..
Re: Whats the best web cam ?
I use a Sony digital video camera (NOT a camcorder) and an Osprey 100 video capture card. Much higher resolution and much higher frame rate than a Logitech. Also, many of the webcam hosts also support live audio along with the video stream, which will work with a headset microphone, which sometimes eliminates having to type during free chat.
Re: Whats the best web cam ?
Thanks for the info ladies!I don't really want to be in Best Buy trying to explain what I need the cam to be able to do ya know ;)
I really think I'd want a headset thingy- my typing is ok but not fast enough for chat..... plus my spelling isn't the greatest either.
About this capture card stuff- I am not familiar with that??? I am using a HP processor and Windows XP, if that makes any difference.
