Summary: Great product!
Review: I was so new to the world of web cams but this little job is a gem! The stand is a little tricky but that is nothing in comparison to the picture quality this thing has. I plan on getting one for my brother and one for my mother for Christmas.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent webcam - Good value for your money!
Review: . Video clarity is very good.
. Works well with Yahoo/MSN messengers & Netmeeting.
. Installation is as simple as plugging in, use the given CD software and 5 clicks.
. The stand that it comes with fits well in my Laptop.
. With 10$ mail-in rebate the price comes to < 32$ w Free shipping, this is a steal!

I wonder why it took so long for me to buy this cam! I have been using the free Largan Chameleon Mega camera (this webcam with has bad video quality) that came with my Dell laptop for the past 1 year :-(

Highly recommended!

Summary: Great Deal
Review: I don't write many reviews but this webcam deserves one. Great price, excellent picture, good color and contrast. It beats many more expensive products and is certainly far superior to some of the Logitech products out there. I'm running a 2.4 gig machine with 512kb memory, Windows XP Pro, which of course did not recognize the driver compatibility but installed without a hitch anyway. This webcam works great with the software bundle it comes with, and it is an above average bundle at that. Works out of the box with Yahoo Messenger and Windows Messenger, no problem at all. Total installation time about 10 minutes. My only complaint would be that the stand for a flat panel monitor include some type of device that allowed for a firm attachment. I suppose a little velcro or tape would solve that problem. Other than that, you cannot go wrong with this purchase. Creative has another winner with this one.

Summary: did not go wrong buying this
Review: i have gone through the cheap free after rebate officemax webcam's, which usually retail (overpriced at that) for $20 to $25. had a compusa brand $18.99 monstrosity, and a Logitech Clicksmart 310.

The ClickSmart doesn't like lights behind me, and has a funny red tinge. That camera is $50+

I got this one for $31 with a rebate offer from Amazon - and it is the best camera I have ever owned. Mic is a separate unit, also comes in box - which i think is a great plus. I hate webcams with built in mics.

Summary: better than logitech
Review: I agree with other reviewers. The Creative Webcam NX Pro is better than the logitech webcams. The price is right, and the quality/color are top-notch.

The stand is a pain however and will require some fiddling to get the webcam to stand.

Summary: Good value for money
Review: I bought this cam when there were no reviews available for this item, so it was kind of a risk that i took. But I was looking for something decent under 50 bucks. Logitech cams < $50 didnt have good reviews, so I went for this one and it turned out to be an excellent choice. The quality is very good, and video recording is also nice. The only minus point about this cam is its stand -- a little unstable. Contrary to what the company says about this, it doesnt quite fit on to my notebook's LCD screen. Also its very light due to which it cant stand the USB cable's weight, so you have to play around a little bit to set it stable. Anyway, except for its stand, its been performing very well till now.

Summary: A good camera, but has flaws
Review: This is a great camera for the money, but it has it's good and bad features. On the plus side, it works GREAT indoors. Even under very dim light it shoots clear pictures. If you want a camera for video email or Instant Messaging, this is a GREAT camera.

On the other hand, don't even attempt to point this camera outside. If it is at all bright out then all you will see is bright white light. Also, the grip does not hold very well to flat monitors or laptops. To be quite honest, I just use a jar and sit the camera on top of it and it works just fine.

Overall, this is a very nice little camera for the money. If you are looking for outside shooting, keep looking. For everything else....this is a great choice!

Summary: It's Okay... But
Review: It is an okay webcam for the price. I am just use to a webcam and microphone all in one like Logitech Webcams. Creative Labs have some good stuff and I have never had any issues with their sound card either... I believe they need more work with the cam if they are planning on being their with Logitech...

Summary: Can't load the Software on my Sony VAIO XP laptop
Review: The installation process hangs on 5%, it doesn't install. I tried two different installation software CDs with same result. Also, I had a very bad experience dealing with Creative customer services.

However, I bought Creative's - WebCam Live model for my sister a month ago. It works very well. So, I have had good and bad experiences with Creative products.
