    2 out of 5 stars Vx1000 is alright for a time   August 26, 2008
    I ordered my vx1000 from somewhere else but when you get the webcam pluged in and installed the drivers and such which is easy to setup and when you first use it the picture is fine however i have had mine for like a couple of months and from time to time the image quality would be a bit blurry and that i see the same result from my friend who has same webcam that i recommended but don't know when that happened anyways let this picture quality speak for it's self.

    If i only knew about this i would not buy it but if you do you can expect good quality but for some reason the cam you could get could be like this.



    4 out of 5 stars A very good WebCam   July 16, 2008
     2 out of 2 found this review helpful

    This camera is very good value and offers excellent quality. If you are looking for a camera that is not too expensive but is not terrible then look no further. It has a good amount of adjustablility and will mount of a flat surface, an LCD moniter or laptop screen.

    Downsides, the adjustment often can be fiddly but once you have got the right spot, you're good to go. The top button is also a bit of a pain. I found myself trying to push the cam up or down and hitting the "Quick IM" button instead.

    I personally used mine for UStream and found it perfect. Quick install too.

    DON'T BUY FOR MAC. Just wanted to throw that out there for those that may think it will work on there too, it won't.

    Otherwise, you will not regret buying this webcam. As good as cams twice the price.



    1 out of 5 stars Didn't work for me ??   June 24, 2008
     4 out of 5 found this review helpful

    Bought from Amazon for 14 or so after reading reviews. I have Windows XP Home Edition. Loaded software OK but on plugging in the Found Hardware Wizard said Error file not located. However, it did work the first time but on restarting PC it didn't, and wasn't detected thereafter. I tried everything including menu help, hardware help, uninstall reinstalled, do this do that umpteen times, emailed Microsoft, no reply, forum here, no response so in the end just gave up. Hardware help said it may be to do with the fact I previously had a Logitech webcam and to download the latest software then try it. Still nothing. Giving it One Star as although I'm sure it's a perfectly good gadget it the right hands, all it gave me was several hours of wasted time and frustration.


    5 out of 5 stars Great Value, Great Camera.   May 24, 2008

    It's small, stylish and sturdy, it installs right away and it integrates seemlessy with Windows Live Messenger. Great Value for money, I don't know why anyone would spend extra on a VX3000/6000.



    5 out of 5 stars Amazing camera!   April 21, 2008
     7 out of 7 found this review helpful

    I bought this camera to replace my lousy Labtec one. Seeing the words 'Microsoft' in the title of this product i immediately expected good qulity, and this was totally fulfilled. It is very good quality and works well with video conferencing (MSN etc) and the way it fits onto the monitor (LCD or CRT) is so useful and avoids the unnecessary hassle of blu-tacing it to the monitor. However, the one pointless feature of the webcam is the 'Video Call' button. This seems to solve a prolbme invented solely by Microsoft that never normally occurs; when this button is pressed MSN is opened and your are asked to chose who to video call. Seems rather pointless to me.

    Thank you for shopping ExcelBookstore.co.uk!
