looking for a 'QuickCam', what do i need to know?

[faye]

Hi,
I am about to buy a QuickCam for my PC,

Main purpose for chating with friends, but still want a great quality.
I saw my friend's 'GameCam Logitech PC USB', the quality is kinda bad,
i don't know if it is a setting problem.

is there any QuickCam that is that small, that cheap and a greater quailty than my friend's?


Some snap shots too!!

whats cheap, the intel camera pro est 99 with 20/rebate or the quick cam - new one. Both are newer generation cams and are very nice!

Look into the 3Com HomeConnect USB video camera. It runs for about $100-$120 (a few of us lucky ones got it for $15 through some waterbridge promo thing). It has the best quality in terms of computer video cameras. You can look into reviews on it, and it's rated very highly, but it's quite on the pricey side.

i was wonder if the GameCam Logitech PC USB can give me a more quality pictures

Comparing $20 to $60

The Intel PC Pack also has reasonably good sharp quality. Logitech and Kensington have the worst quality I've seen. I don't know the difference between the 3com or the Intel but if the 3com is really great then you might as well get the best for a few more dollars. There is nothing that is more disturbing then seeing your friends all fuzzy.
