Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 Webcam

Pros: Image quality, simple effective software, warranty.

Cons: Low light images still grainy, vid conference sound still prone to feedback

The Bottom Line: Get this cam if you want excellent quality webcam imagery, want to send high quality video email, or use video on your blog. Great still images at 5 MP!!

Review: I have for some years been happy with the performance of my Logitech Quickcam Communicate. It sent rudimentary video, the sound was good, the low light adjustment was acceptable, and it was cheap. Well, you know how it goes, after a while the technology ...

Pros: Feels like you are in the same room as the person you are viewing.

Cons: having to adjust the settings was a bit of a pain at first.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this webcam because it really does what it says on the box, and is good value for money too!

Review: Due to my old webcam falling off the computer table and cracking I decided I would upgrade to a better one. I think webcams are a brilliant invention and makes chatting to friends online so much more personal. First of all some of you who are reading ...

Pros: Compact, stylist, HD quality still and video, easy to set up and use

Cons: None at present.

The Bottom Line: Easy to use, provides detail, clear images and sound, low price.

Review: I ordered my Microsoft Life Cam NX 6000 for Office Depot the first part of January 2007. However, I only received it last week. But the Microsoft Life Cam NX 6000 was definitely worth waiting for. It's perfect for almost any notebook running Windows ...

Pros: Good little web camera

Cons: room needs to be lighted or the video and photo will be washed out.

The Bottom Line: This a wonderful camera because of the resolution of 7.6MP for stand alone photos and 2.0MP for Videos.

Review: This is a good web camera that clips to a laptop monitor. I have to say the microphone is built in as well. The resolution goes up to 7.6 mega pixels for photos and 2.0 mega pixels for video. It's small and the camera slides into the unit. With a ...

Pros: great microphone quality, works well in low light, clips to laptop monitor

Cons: sometimes zooms during recording without prompting

Review: My husband and I picked out this camera to use with our new HelloWorld account. We wanted something with a built-in microphone and we needed something that would attach to the top of a laptop screen. Installation was easy, just put in the CD and in a few ...

Pros: - Correct spelling of "Microsoft" get's shown

Cons: - Bad installation procedure - Inflexible setup

The Bottom Line: I do NOT recommend this, because installation didn't work out at all, and the actual performance was lousy.

Review: My experience was not good. It is clear that the CD software has to be installed first before one inserts the USB - good. But upon installing the software, it took several long minutes for the progress bar to reach 100%. This is just a webcam right? ...

Pros: Spec. sheet looked good.

Cons: Complex, tedious install; repeated initialization errors; nothing relevant in "help."

The Bottom Line: Not worth the money; and especially not worth the time and frustration.

Review: The high resolution of this webcam, and the Microsoft label, led me to hope that finally there might be a competitor to the high quality 3-Com (aka Vicam) webcams, that were discontinued a few years ago. The camera lists for almost $100, and I bought ...

Pros: Have very good sound. Adapt good with the monitor laptop

Cons: The videos with poor light is VERY BAD, a lot noise and very poor quality.

Review: This camera have very nice, good design and adapt perfect with the monitor of the laptop and desktop. If you find GOOD QUALITY not recomend this ...

Pros: Can't comment on product quality.

Cons: Microsoft rejects honest rebate submissions

Review: Haven't yet installed this web camera, but Microsoft doesn't honor rebates. there was a little scratch in barcode (still readable). I recommend that you boycott manufacturer's that play games with rebates. It's just another way to bait and ...

Pros: The webcam itself will work with OTHER software, and the quality is good.

Cons: The LifeCam application software that comes with the webcam just does not work.

Review: I downloaded the latest Vista compatible version of the LifeCam software V1.4, installed it per instructions. When I was finished, the software was unable to start the camera. I receive "Initialization error". I have uninstalled and reinstalled this ...
