5.0 out of 5 stars My 1st webcam and it's great!!! You should buy this one., September 12, 2007

By	A. Dang (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After testing out 3 webcams: Logitech Quickcam chat($25), Creative Live ($30), and Logitech communicate STX ($42)this one is the best. The first two were pieces of junk. I really wanted to like Logitech's communicate STX due to the good ratings, but their drivers do not work with older computers and Logitech does not have updated drivers. I spent 2 hours on the set up and trying out their driver downloaded from their site. I returned that the next day. Today I recieved Microsoft Vx-3000, which I bought here on Amazon for $36 and I'd have to say it's a really good webcam. Set up was super fast, it took less than 10 mins to get on yahoo messenger live on cam). The quality is really good too. WOW! I'm a satisfied customer. I will update if any problems arise.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works Well, Good Quality! Recommended, December 9, 2008

By	CFH "chillnhill" (Blue Ridge Summit, PA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

The "Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000" is a great little webcam that installs fairly quickly (on my Vista PC) and provides good video and audio quality.

This webcam was very easy to install and setup, taking less than a half hour so before I was able to make my first test shots. The automatic recognition by Windows Live Messenger was great and did not require any additional settings.

The video quality is good for web and video chatting, but I wouldn't use it for taking photos that are to be printed. The audio is also good for video chatting, but not much else.

This is a good solid webcam that performs better than expected!

Recommended!

2.0 out of 5 stars Great Product Poor Packaging, December 20, 2008

By	TXVLB (TEXAS, USA) - See all my reviews

I was going to be wrapping this up giving this as a gift to my sister. Instead I bought something else for her since the packaging was so awful. The packaging was torn in places the plastic cover crunched and scratched so bad that you can barely see the product. It was perfectly wrapped in brown shipping paper so it must of been this way before shipment very disappointing. I will probably still give it to her but not as a christmas gift :(
