Rating: - Poor Quality, Doesn't Work With Skype
The options are bleak if you're looking for a USB web cam for Macs these days, so I reluctantly gave this one a shot. The image quality is terrible -- it's extremely grainy and of poor contrast even in good lighting conditions. Furthermore, it doesn't work with Skype -- even with the help of the iUSBCam software. A complete waste of $30.
Rating: - Waste of money~ doesn't do a darn thing
Absolute POS waste of money. Do not, under any circumstances, purchase this if you have a mac and want to use YIM. It will crash as soon as someone connects to see you, or within a few seconds thereafter. It would have been better to burn the $25... at least it would have produced a little bit of heat and light.
Rating: - Some work, some don't
I bought 2 and had to send 2 back before I could get us both working -- and even now sometimes the system just locks up and I have to quit the chat program and launch it again.
Tech support is great!
Rating: - Amazing web-cam
The camera is very easy to install and use. We can talk to our son out west and look into his eyes. Wonderful technology.
Rating: - Good for Skype
This camera works well for Skype but as most if not all of you know, Ichat is a different beast all together, since I was looking for an inexpensive way to video conference via Skype I'm fairly happy w/ this but the picture quality isn't the greatest. At around $33.00 including shipping I cannot complain. Alls well that ends well.
