Advantages: single camera for at pc and anywhere use
Disadvantages: unstable, crashes and hangs pc

...the latest drivers from the creative website, but this still didnt fix the problem and support was basic to put it mildly. What seemed a great idea, a webcam that works as a camera on the go, didnt materialise from Creative. Picture quality very poor, tricky to use and UNSTABLE on my pc are warnings against this. Other ideas: Probably wiser to stick to 2 separate cams, a webcam and a portable digital camera or look at other products. Good luck! ... Read review

Advantages: Good low light performance, cheap
Disadvantages: No built in microphone

...so ended up with a Creative Labs WebCam 5. Creative Labs' WebCam 5 promised improved low light performance but given its low price point, I wasn't expecting too much. As it turns out I was pleasantly surprised. Installation Due to the low price the WebCam 5 is a fairly minimalist affair. The box contains the camera with a captive USB lead and the software CD. Being a USB device, the drivers and software need to be installed first before plugging ...
...the Creative Video Blaster WebCam Control which allows you to set up the camera settings to suit your environment. The software is quite flexible here with lots to twiddle including various white balance settings, resolutions, frame rates, colour models and so on. The defaults were fine for me though. Windows immediately recognised the camera which draws its power from the PC and upon firing up the software I was treated(?) to the image of myself ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, user friendly web cam
Disadvantages: no longer supported by Creative

The Creative Web cam. I was truly amazed when I found out that 'mini-spy' cameras were available for the general public. I don't recall when I first heard about them but I was aware that they were about. I was more aware that Porn sites used them. This way people could have a (pixel 'ly') look at some Russian blonde play with herself in front of a web cam (at great cost). Probably not the best reference I could give but this is, as far as I am ...
...use (honest). I chose the Creative web cam because it is a Creative product (no pun). Creative really are the best products you can buy quality wise and they are always very well priced. Neat packaging with all the relevant details on the box, such as recommended specs. This web cam came out for Windows 98. At the time it required very little in the way of performance and was of course USB. The installation, like most USB products is very simple. ... Read review

...am used to read about Logitech Webcams but, for the below description, we cannot blame this Logitech for being cheap. In general broads terms, webcams are differen gadgets. Most computers electronics components are 90% noted for the performance and the life longevity. It doesn't mean a thing how your webcam looks where you can't get the best image you want. Starting with the driver, unfortunately, it doesn't support x64. The set-up for the software ...
...VGA standard (640*480). I think Logitech archived that long time ago? correct me if I am wrong. A major issue for logitech webcam is the lightening. They require a lot of light. Perfectly, it can be used to a source of light behind the cam which can be exhausted to the user's eyes. a good point it has auto-focus. (feature of some optical system to obtain, correct focus on a subject). Believe me , it has. .... I don't mean to be rude to logitech ... Read review
