5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleasantly surprised, March 13, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this camera to replace a Logitech QuickCam Fusion. I'd been having problems with Skype, all of which seemed related to the Fusion.

This camera's image in significantly better than the Fusion's in my (not so great) office lighting. That's quite an accomplishment, considering the Fusion is a current product and sells for three times the price of this camera. I recommend it particularly for those who want to video-chat with their away-from-home kids. It's inexpensive enough to buy one for each.

5.0 out of 5 stars newbie, December 15, 2006
By Linda "katknit" (CT, United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
I'm new to webcams and have found it both easy and enjoyable to use the VX1000. It installed quickly without disruption to my laptop, provides clear images, and decent audio quality. Perhaps users who are more tech minded might prefer something more elaborate, but this works well for me. Good price too.
