A happy new (tech) year 2010!
My first review of this year, a Webcam from Microsoft. The LifeCam Show is equipped with a microphone and a camera that shoots up to 8 megapixel still images and records 800x600 videos. It has contemporary design. You can
will be shipped with a tripod on which the camera is magnetically mounted. The package is still a magnet that can be glued to a laptop to the Webcam to assemble there.
The stand is sturdy and meets 100% of his task. Thanks to the magnet it has a little room to adjust the height and width.
The webcam comes with the program "Microsoft LifeCam". The program can be brightness, set white balance or set. In addition, you can still zoom up to 5x digital. Then you can about the software digitally to the left, right, up or down swing. In the software there are also small gadgets like digital hats, you can sit up. The camera focuses entirely automatically.
the Webcam is connected to a Windows XP, Windows Vista computer with USB 2.0. From my own experience, she also works smoothly on Windows 7
The only disturbing factor is me, the cable length. It is set at 1.8m with Amazon, which I think is not enough. The camera could also use the live stream, where they do not always sit in front of your nose will. I now have my camera connected via a USB extension to the computer.
What I was really positive surprise is the quality of the microphone. The camera is about 1 meter away from me and my interlocutor understands me still very good. The level is adjusted automatically. Until now I have no complaints received about an echo, even though the camera is close to a speaker, which I hear the other person. You do not even talk directly to the camera, and the opposite one can still understand.
Conclusion:
The camera is worth its price. The quality of camera as well as microphone is perfect.
