Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Microsoft Lifecam VX-1000
Customer Review: Works well, but I'd recommend the VX-3000 model
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for an older laptop in our office, and since it was Windows 2000, it didn't work (my fault for not checking). Anyway, we are now using it on a XP machine, and the camera works well. It's clear and the microphone performs well. The only issue is when adjusting, it is darn-near impossible NOT to hit that button on top (which launches Windows Live messenger, which we don't use). I've seen a buncb of other people mention the same thing. We use Skype... no issues at all with it.
So, all-in-all, I would have given a 4.5, which I can't, so since it isn't perfect, I'm giving it 4 stars.
I also have a VX-3000 model which I would purchase over this one since it's around the same price and USB 2.0. Though, to be honest, I don't notice much difference.
