Summary: Plenty of fun
Review: *Very* nice quality for the price, especially being a color camera. I was amazed at all the options the software offers, including a few Pong-like games! It's also lightweight and easy to install. Very comprehensible instructions and a lot of fun to use. :) It's a great little camera!

Summary: Decent for its price
Review: Hey it's 30 bucks(roundabout). For that, the setup was trouble-free, and using it was a cinch. But personally, I wish for two things: that it wasn't colored white, cuz it get's dirty real easy. U leave it on top of your monitor, the dust collects and......Also, when I used Netmeeting, no matter how much I tried to focus, the pciture wasn't entirely clear. But again, for it's price, this camera is a sweet deal, and pretty cool looking too!

Summary: Great for the price
Review: Don't expect fantastic image quality, but for the price who's complaining? The software is not sophisticated but really easy to use. Think twice, however, about clicking 'upgrade software' when asked - my camera came with version 5.2.0.2099, which works fine. But the upgrade I downloaded was buggy (5.4.3?) and I never got the camera working properly with it. Also some of the web cam settings options seemed to have disappeared in the new software. I had to uninstall the software and start over from scratch. One fault with the shipped software: the video editing functions are worthless, they probably shouldn't have bothered, but what do you expect at this price. Finally, beware that with USB, you can't use too long a cable with the camera. I was able to extend it to 16 feet with a 10' extension but going beyond that failed to work. This is a limitation of USB, not the camera itself.

Summary: Don't waste your money...
Review: I had a black and white quick cam that I was replacing. The B&W had 640 x 480 resolution and very nice pic quality for web conferencing, email photos etc... This cheap color version has just awful image quality... I sell alot on ebay, and my auctions pics made with this thing really stink. You can adjust it till your blue in the face and you won't get a decent image to save your life. Spend more money, get a better product than this. You get what you pay for.

Summary: PIECE OF JUNK!
Review: I was looking for a webcam, mostly to capture still images to inject into email, and at the suggestion of a couple of friends, I invested...in a Logitech Quickcam Express. It looks kinda stupid, with it's eyeball shape, but this didn't matter. I excitedly unpacked it, installed the software without a hitch, and plugged the 'eyeball' contraption into a USB port. The rest of the experience was VERY disappointing even at the very low price. First, even with VERY CAREFULL adjustment of the difficult to turn, (camera rolled out of the base 5 times, as there is NOTHING to hold it) focus wheel, the images were only marginally viewable. Also, at about the size of a postage stamp, they are so TINY you would have to be within about a FOOT to even see them! Trying to go to maximum resolution, (still very small) the images got so GRAINY, as to be unviewable. Needless to say, I packed the piece of crap up, and took it back to the retailer where I purchased a slightly more expensive cam, and had MUCH better results. If you are looking for a 'TOY', go ahead and buy a Quick Cam Express...If you need DECENT images, still OR video, leave this crap at the store, and by one with 640X480 resolution...

Summary: if you want a web cam grab this it's great.
Review: if you are thinking of getting a camera for the web this is the one for you. I use it for 3 web sites and except for no sound it has performed extremely well.

Works with most software. The capture program that comes with it is limited so you will probably want to get a picture manipulation program, they have a few here. It works with almost all of them that use the windows video interface protocoal.

it's a great way to get into webcasting, or just video conferencing cheaply...

Summary: WHAT A VALUE!!!
Review: This little camera is simply amazing. The picture is just fine. Anyone who says otherwise was looking for professional equipment. I am a photographer by trade and think that for $25 this is the best deal in town. I use it to videoconference, attach videos to emails and shoot stills of photo equipment to sell on the net. It is amazingly easy to install and the focus was not an issue once you figure out that you need to turn the grey knob on the front. I would reccomend that anyone buy this. If you want amazing quality spend several thousand on professional equipment. If you are looking for something low key and "good enough" this is it.

Summary: Camera
Review: I received this camera as a gift from my cousin and I have only had it one day and already I am going to return it. Save your money first off it's slow; the picture quality is poor and if you want to put a full screen picture forget about it. Logitech should just do us all a favor and get rid of this piece of junk. In my onion if this camera came with your computer or you bought it separately or are planning on buying throw it away it is better to have nothing than to have this camera it is junk plan and simple. I also think that it is in poor test to even have a camera of this low quality on Amazon. Com and they should discontinue selling it.

Summary: The QuickCam Express does very well for the money
Review: This camera is a very good value for the money. As I own a regular digital camera that takes a superior picture compared to the QuickCam, I was very critical at first. But, putting things in perspective, the QuickCam Express is an outstanding value. It works great for what its intended purpose is, and thats simply seeing, and being seen, by the party to whom you are communicating with! You should have overhead lights on in the room and be sure you have some light illuminating your front side. It dosn't work in the dark! Fine product, will gladly recommend for basic videoconferencing.

Rating: 5 stars
