Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of LifeCam VX-1000 WIN-Blk
Customer Review: A Great Cam!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this webcam just yesterday. First thing I was so impressed with was the price. Finding a cam for $25 means it's probably not all that good considering the people I know that use webcams all the time use $100 advanced feature stuff.
I'd have to say my only complaint is that the install took a while, it would get to the last bar and then it would take forever to finish despite restarts. I loaded it up, cleaned my room, did groceries, and when I came home, it was done.
The quality on it is amazing, way better than my last one. It also comes with cute effects.
There's only one issue I'm having with this webcam and I hope someone can help me with this. On AIM, I can see myself and the person I'm talking to and I can hear them but they can't hear me. On Windows Live (The most recent version) The person can see and hear me and I can hear and see them but I can't see myself.
It's still not enough to drag down my score. I'd definitely replace this in a heartbeat if it were broken. It's a worthwhile investment if your looking for a quality cam for not alot of cash.
