4 out of 5 stars Good webcam for the price   May 17, 2008
Kevin Lassiter
This camera works ok. The image it puts out is very choppy, but what can you expect for a webcam at that price? All in all, we were pleased with the purchase.


1 out of 5 stars Menace to your corporate laptop   March 9, 2008

For the price I paid (less than $30) this camera brings a lot of value. It is compact, sits nicely on top of the laptop screen, comes with a cary case and a headset with a microphone.

Unfortunately, I was not able to use it at all.

After the installation of the LiveCam software, my laptop could not boot up. Several restarts later, Windows finally loaded but without any network connectivity.
Apperently, the Livecam Software totally destroyed the VPN configuration together with wireless and LAN settings.
Our Service Desk techs will have a lot of work to do on Monday.

Picture quality is OK, athough picture brightness changes arbitrarily
Bundled software didn't work at all



4 out of 5 stars Good hardware, bad software   November 30, 2007

I purchased the Creative LiveCam Notebook Pro to complement my Skyping with several of my friends who also have webcams. It works quite well for this. Integration with Skype is as easy as it should be, the image is of a good quality, etc. Having the ability to manually focus the webcam is nice compared to cheaper ones I've used where that was not an option. The clip that clips the cam to the top of the screen works perfectly on my laptop screen. The device is impressively small.

My one complaint, and the reason I gave this device 4 stars instead of 5, is the included software. It was a pain to find/download/install (Vista users: You'll have to use the updated driver on creative.com) The software itself is pretty clunky, and has crashed several times. Also, every time a program uses the webcam (flash, Skype, etc) a window comes up to let you adjust settings on your webcam, which is much more annoying than helpful.

Overall, though, it's certainly a good webcam for the price.



3 out of 5 stars Windows Vista   August 21, 2007

This camera is not compatable with Windows Vista as stated in the description.If you go to creative Labs web site they will confirm this. You can't use the software that comes with it.You have to download a newer version from there web site.Plus you have to download the driver which is a Beta version and it still might not work.I know i have one and tried using it on my laptop.I finnally got it to work but software was slow in responding. They do have a newer version of this camera just for Vista. That's why there selling cheap Normally they sold around $79.99 in retail outlets
