Summary: Not compatible with USB cable modem and McAfee Firewall
Review: Have spent several days trying to get this to work. After installation I am unable to get online and my firewall is disabled. Judging from their website's discussion forum, this has been a known issue since last October with no fix in site.

After a lengthy wait (on my dime) with their customer reps, I was told they would call me back in 24-48 hours. With only one day off per week, this was not going to do me any good. My caller id still has shown no calls from them, and it's been almost a week. So I wrote email to customer service, they responded with instructions on hooking up a keyboard. I wrote back, they gave instructions on doing a "clean boot" before installation. This actually got me online, but firewall once again disabled and system ran incredibly slow. Am going to return it to Amazon and try another brand.

Summary: customer deception
Review: Logitech pro 4000 camera does not work with AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) in the most unbelievable deception that a buyer caught unawares may have to face; never had so many problems with a piece of hardware (crashed a 4-yearold laptop through audio incompatibility)

Summary: It is great, simple to setup and to use!
Review: I just got my webcam and already have it set up. It is so small, I was amazed at it's size. It came with two stands, and a nice long cord, about 5'! It had a booklet instructing you how to set it up! The setup was was fine except in trying to install the software, I click on the chinese version! The instructions for using the CED-ROM disc could have been more explicit! And there were no instruction on how to operate the zoom lens or the built-in microphone! I will look further for information. BUT, I would still order it again and think it is an excellent bargain from Amazon! They are totally rad!

Later, dude!

Summary: Awesome cam for the money. But be patient when configuring!
Review: It took a little while to fine tune the settings- Dont expect it to work right out of the box!) Most of the problems occur when trying to configure the camera to work with your messenger (I use MSN 6.1) but once youre done, it is an excellent webcam. I tried the Quickcam Express which was horrible and the Quickcam zoom came highly recommended. But for the money, I went for the Pro 4000 and Im happy with it. Also, go for the picture quality and the zoom. The other add-ons (which are nice), you really won't use.

Summary: Functional and simple
Review: Great webcam - very simple yet functional.

The installation was quick and easy. For those complaining about the "extra software" - those are simply optional online albums that they're advertising; they're by no means needed to run the webcam.

Both the live stream and the still pictures' qualities are superb.

The auto face-tracking is a good feature to have.

The little "visor" that covers the lens is a cute feature.

Summary: AWESOME CAMMIN!
Review: A totally awesome and quite an impressive webcam with face-tracking, digital zoom and built-in microphone - all with an extremely affordable price. Super easy to install (especially with XP) and user-friendly software package. I'm told that the detail, image clarity and overall quality online is spectacular. People often ask me what type of web camera I am using and I always tell. So, I know that this camera sells itself.

I'm sold on Logitech for a long time because of this camera! I've tried three other manufacturer's webcams and have been consistently disappointed with driver updates for operating systems and compatibility with online messengers. The Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000 works great with ALL of my instant messengers and online chat plug ins!

Summary: FANTASTIC CAMERA!!! VERY PLEASED
Review: I used to own a VEO Velocity camera, and my girlfriend purchased one of these so that we can chat when i move overseas. When we hooked it up I was absolutely amazed by the clarity of the camera. We went online and did some Video IMing and I could not believe how sharp the picture was. This camera is awesome. The software includes a motion tracker which is pretty cool. If you want it to, it turns on whenever it detects motion, so you can catch someone doing something they shouldnt be doing. It works flawlessly and was a breeze to configure and install. After seeing it online, i went out and bought two, one for me and one for my mom. Its a great camera.

Summary: Best webcam I have ever seen/used.
Review: After testing this camera I found the following things

1. Video Qualtiy - The video quality is amazing. I got 640 x 480 @ 30 FPS. I use Windows Movie Maker to capture and edit. Awesome and free. (or Virtual Dub, I like windows movie maker format a little better though)

2. Image Quality - The image quality is great, for its design. The resolution is 640 x 480 = 307 200 dots in the picture. For photo quality you need 2 000 000 minimum. So as you can see its no where near that. But for web shots its great.

3. Base - I heard many complaints about base. I know why. If you look at the webcam base there is a little notch for the webcam to be put in a certain way. If you dont' put it in right then it will not stay in very well.

4. MSN 6.x - If you plan on using this with MSN 6.x and both parties have windows xp and a webcam use the video conferencing feature, much better then the normal webcam feature.

TIP: In the cmaera settings, Take white balance and take it off of auto and put it on the one that makes it look the most natual. For me I have flourescent lightbulbs and incandescent looks the best.

TIP 2: If you want to avoid a crappy and grainy picture/video, make sure you take exposure off of auto and lower the gain. Less gain, less grain. Only do this if you use the same lighting all the time.
