This promises better quality images through superior optics, which is really more important than huge pixel counts. The lens has the legend Carl Zeiss inscribed onto it, which is a marketing tool that Sony has been exploiting for some time now on its still cameras and even its phones. The web cam lens is bulbous with a larger circular lens and a microphone at the end of a section that extends to one side. It’s not quite as flexible as the rotating lens on the Ultra Vision, but it’s close. You can then angle the webcam up but not down. As it happens the webcam isn’t sitting correctly on the display on the pictures, but actually there’s a small plastic lip under the main body of the webcam, which you rest on the edge and you then bend the stand so it rests on the back of the screen. However, should you need to take your webcam with you regularly, there’s a specific version of it for notebooks with a clip.Īs it was, I found getting the rest at the back to fit snugly to the back of the laptop I wrote this review to be a bit of a dark art, but I got there in the end. The long rest at the back means that it’s not really smaller than the Ultra Vision, but it is lighter and less bulky making it more suitable for taking it with you if you’re carrying a laptop. Both of the latter are present on the newer Quickcam Pro 9000. The highlights of the Ultra Vision were glass lens elements, a 1.3 megapixel sensor, and Rightlight and RightSound – light optimisation, and noise cancelling technologies. Logitech has a huge range of PC peripherals and has long been a champion of the webcam, and we’ve seen some excellent examples from it such as the Quickcam Ultra Vision. However, many laptops and virtually all monitors don’t have one so an external one it needs to be. If you are going to have adequate light and do not need stereo transmission than I would consider this model if you can get it for less than the C910.Now if you’ve got a laptop, there’s a chance that you’ll have a webcam built in, which is certainly preferable in terms of convenience and absence of cable clutter. This is an upgrade from the Pro 9000 in sensor, audio and low light performance. It takes super images for motion capture. I would suggest this to anyone needing a decent webcam.Īpart for those issues I have no complaints. It is more than adequate for using Skype and performing motion capture.

Chrome bezel around lens makes this a less than covert webcam. Once properly set up it stays put but I NEVER want to move the camera or monitor again. The attachment feature is very difficult to get it to set properly on top of my LG flat screen monitor. It causes all sorts of weird visual artifacts. 'Real light' or whatever they call the automatic setting for the camera is a waste of time. I would suggest this to anyone needing a decent webcam. Overall, it has so many features for the price, and it is fun to use.Įighteen months ago I installed the Quickcam Pro 9000 on my computer. Downsides: Still not ideal way to mount cam, it can and does slip.Īlso sometimes settings must be reloaded to function properly, it can be done, but there is a glitch somewhere. The quality of images is exceptional generally. The set up process is simple here, and Logitech communicates in a human way, "go get a cup of coffee and take 5 while this loads". For the most part, I will not look at any other brands anymore due to lack of consistency. It may be the best performer for the price available. I have bought several Logitech QUICKCAM PRO 9000 WEB CAMs for both myself and friends. Overall, it has so many features for the price, and it is fun to use.
