Once this camera is up and operating, the quality is not bad. But there's a major caveat for newer PC users with Vista - this camera is NOT officially supported on that operating system (it's fine on Windows XP). However...there's a workaround. Do NOT install the CD or plug in the camera. First, goto the Logitech website and download the software (32 bit version for most of you) for the Logitech Quick Communicate STX. This version IS available for Vista though you have to go through the menus at the Logitech site which can be awkward. Install that software first. When it gets to the point to ask for the camera, plug yours in. If it is like mine, it will NOT find the right drivers and will eventually ask you to put in your CD (the one you got with your camera). Go ahead and do that and it will load the needed drivers off the CD while using the more recent QuickCam software that you downloaded. The software will then see the camera and things should mostly work for you. Read more
I ordered this since I am moving away to college in the fall and I got myself the Logitech Notebook Pro which is a thousand times better. The picture quality is ridiculous and whenever I took a picture my computer crashed! I am returning this immediately! Read more
I am disappointed because the installation disk would not work with my HP7-1234 computer. The disk is labeled Quickcam 8-4-1 Driver Installer. I assume that it is the wrong disk. I purchased this computer in June. Read more

It was exactly what I expected. Delivered good quality pictures with good video stream. Makes for a lot of fun time online. And it's quite clear according to the other end. I would recommend this product if you're in the mid price range, it's not too expensive but there are cheaper models. I believe it's well worth the bang for the buck, and I give it a 4 out of 5 because there aren't 4.5s ;) Read more
I compared this with the Logitech Quickcam 4000 Pro. Both are: - Easy to install, plug and play, no issues - Have great software, solid, etc. - Robust, reliable. However: - This one is less expensive - The 4000 pro has CONSIDERABLY better image quality. I found this one to be very grainy and borderline unacceptable. If price is the primary concern, this one isn't a disaster and it didn't have quality problems. However, if you can afford the added cost, you'll be happier with the pro. Read more
Beware of this product, it ONLY works on windows XP. I called Logitech and they told me exactly that it will NOT work with anything besides Windows XP. If you are planning on buying this and are not currently using Windows XP then keep on searching for other cameras. Read more
