This is a very nice little package - and the emphasis is on "little". About 3/4ths of an inch wide, maybe a half inch thick (exclusive of the clip) and two inches long. The clip is simpler than Logitech's previous laptop camera designs, but may still be a problem for some. It has a round moulding on one side that may cause it to slide out of position on some laptops. Not a major problem, but could be an occasional annoyance. As with all Logitech devices, do not use the drivers on the supplied CD. Logitech drivers change often and you'll always want to use the most recent version from their web site. Image quality is excellent for a webcam. Low-light images are okay, though somewhat noisy (grainy). The lens is wide angle and you may actually find yourself applying a bit of digital zoom to enchance the image size of single figure. Diminishes image quality a bit, but better than being a seemingly tiny part of the view. The webcam's internal microphone is excellent and Logitech's echo cancellation technology is truly cool. A small earphone and microphone are supplied with the package. A very nice carrying case will hold both the webcam and the headphone/microphone. The unit works well with all the major IM and VoIP services. All in all, a very nice package. The camera does tend to get hot, but this shouldn't be a problem. A nice item for anyone who travels, even if it's only to the local library with a WiFi connection or internet cafe. For long distance travel, it's wonderful: a tiny little package that delivers great results. Jerry Read more

Overall, I am happy with the purchase. I'd recommend it to anyone who cares about the quality of the pics/video they want to send. If you expect to use it infrequently, I'd buy something cheaper. Pros: Easy to set up, excellent software package, great picture and video quality (have yet to try the microphone yet). The software has some cool avatars and you can get more from Logitech's website. A face tracking feature keeps the camera focused on you and allows the avatars to mimic you. It's easy to adjust the camera specs for different environments. The semi-hard case is cool to have. Cons: It was pricey, but it's balanced by the quality. The clip could be a little better. It takes a little fiddling to get it to sit on the lip of my T series ThinkPad. Also, the cord could be longer. I could see someone with USB ports towards the front of the machine having trouble with the cord length, but it's not a problem for me. Read more

Having read the previous reviews I agree with the following: versatility of the wider viewing angle portability and the convenient size fair color rendition, relatively decent resolution mediocre low light compensation considerable heating up of the unit (makes sense: the smaller the area for heat dissipation, the greater the heat index) Overall, the cam performs well outside of the IM environment. It seems to tolerate MSN but craps out on Yahoo. Major problems include a significant lag, freezing up, and worst of all, enormous posterization. I was so disappointed that I nearly returned it but, trouble is, there are few if any products much better for the price. The limitation is largely in the entire product category and not in this cam per se. I'm hoping that it performs better with Skype and AIM. MSN was ok but not an option for my Mac-user friends. Oh, minor gripe: the clip is cumbresome to attach to my Dell Inspiron but stays put once there. Other features: face tracking, funky avatars-- just tiresome gimmicks for teens. What counts is basic streaming of images and that seems to be greatly dependant on the IM interface. Some day this generation of webcams will seem like Kodak disposables. Read more

Not supported by Windows 7. The disc shipped with it is for Windows Vista. I tried to find appropriate drivers for it and Logitech elected not to support this camera on Windows 7. If someone gives you this camera and you can't return it then the native Windows drivers will let you use the camera, but you will have limited controls. In summary, this is an old camera that probably should no longer be sold. Read more

Nice Packaged, Nice Looking Webcam, Clips Seem to work pretty well with Laptop/Notebook. I follow the the menu installed the software before I plug in the web cam. Guess what...after the software was install, it ask me to plug the web cam in...than nothing happen. I check the device manager, it was blank. software conflict with my laptop and made all USB port fail I have to switch to safe mode and system restore. I try about 3 time, I give up and returned it to amazon. I never had problem with the Logitech Quick Cam 4000, what so ever.But This one don't seem to work with my Dell 6000. Not sure is the software that came with or the camera is bad. Read more

Very easy to install (Should be up & running within 15-20 minutes). The webcam itself works great; excellent picture quality and its accompanying features (especially the face tracking aspect of it) make it well worth the price. Heads up: It gets Hot! If you've used it for more than 15-20 minutes, handle with care. No oven mitts necessary but it does get hot. Apart from that, the carrying case may be slightly small for the webcam (takes a minute to get it in there just right), but overall a good investment! Far better than other competing products in the market. Read more
