Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX Webcam

Pros: Inexpensive, easy to use, cool, very good picture and sound

Cons: Nothing that jumps out at me

The Bottom Line: A very good webcam for the money and for everyday use.

Review: Well, I gave in to my wife and got her what she had been wishing for. She is very close to her family and moving to Atlanta has not always been easy on her. I told her a year ago that I would get her a webcam so she could chat and, every bit as...

Pros: Maximum functionality for minimal layout

Cons: Tricky to hang off a flat screen, awkward MSN interface

The Bottom Line: Get this webcam to obtain maximum functionality from a webcam this price to $200 more. Need I say more?

Review: I obtained a webcam primarily to permit me to communicate with friends from Europe. Actually the person with whom I planned to use it the most frequently lives in England, and we used the web to choose a cam together, intending thus to find hardware...

Pros: sound and video quality, small size, mounts on flat screen monitor

Cons: possible driver contention, poor customer service

The Bottom Line: Good video and audio quality, poor customer service -- a good buy for the price

Review: I've found the video and audio quality produced from this camera to be excellent. It seems a bit finicky about lighting -- that is to say it wants a lot of light to produce images that are not to dark or in shadow, but the software includes a low...

Pros: Resolution
Price
Ease-of-use

Cons: Base May Break over Time

The Bottom Line: This web cam feels like it will last quite a while. My only concern being the base, I do recommend this product.

Review: Having a decent web camera is one of the more important aspects of chatting online. If your camera is of too poor quality, you won t be able to be seen by the person you re speaking to. At the same point in time, more expensive cameras come at a...

Pros: Low light filter, works with every IM service, Logitech VideoCall

Cons: No face tracking technology for 40 bucks and the Logitech Video service isn't freeware.

The Bottom Line: The Logitech camera's low light filter, color boost, audio quality and video compression capabilities alone make this webcam a good buy, not to mention all the IM services.

Review: Before purchasing the Logitech I used an Ezonics EZcam for my desktop. The Ezonics EZcam was ok if you had plenty of light, but it doesn't hold a candle to the Logitech STX.

After being hassled with having to turn on all the lights for...

Pros: Sound and picture quality are excellent.

Cons: Some more detailed description of the set up options would have been helpful.

The Bottom Line: An excellent, inexpensive webcam. Easy to use. Perfect for communicating with family members.

Review: I admit I was a little skeptical when my Dad said he wanted me to have a web cam so he could talk to my kids online. However, this little camera changed my mind. In a matter of minutes after taking it out of the box, I was up and running with a...

Pros: Easy install, excellent picture even in low light, great sound quality from built in microphone.

Cons: Had an audio issue at first but it was my settings

Review: The Logitech quickcam STX communicate is an excellent webcam. The microphone will pick up my voice even farther than the three feet range suggested. I love that I can move around and still be heard. Also the webcam stays focused on my face when I...

Pros: Decent image as well as decent microphone.

Cons: Wish it had a lens cover like my old Intel webcam

Review: This replaces my outdated Intel 430 webcam.

So far after a day of use it serves it's purpose well. The picture quality it a bit above average and the microphone seems to work fina according to family members who web doing a webchat with...

Pros: Big picture capability

Cons: Frame speed slower than older cameras

Review: Purchased this camera new, and the image capture is slower than my old beat-up Veo. Tried a new Logitek QuickCam, and it worked far better. I do like the built-in mic, and the 640x480 capability, but overall, it is twice the price of the QuickCam,...

Pros: Easy set up. Excellent results and no problems.

Cons: Nothing adverse to report.

Review: Following a friend's recommendation, I have been using a Logitech Pro 5000 for about 8 months and I have been delighted with the results. So much so other members of my family and some of my friends have now acquired the same model. I speak with...
