NEW Creative 3.0MP Camera + Webcam $122.99 Shipped (PC-CAM 880)

[pETerCOolZ]

This just came out a few weeks ago: great features for the price. The 3.0MP is really 2.1MP lens with some digital magic making it 3.0. Creative is known for some great software coming with their webcams and this is no exception.

This is a stand alone camera that can serve as a webcam also, and comes with a webcam stand.

What is it with all these cameras that use the wimpy sd cards? Otherwise would have been a good birthday gift for a friend.

I picked up the ezonics webcam / stand alone cam for $19 at Staples Clearance. It is enough for what it is, and 1/6 the price. It does not have the LCD.

Because it is a lot smaller (physically) then compact flash.

So it's a 2.1 MP camera. Interpolated resolution doesn't count; interpolation does nothing Photoshop could not. Theoretically then, my 2 MP camera is 14 Megapixel Interpolated Resolution with photoshop's help. Doesn't make the photos look much better though 🙂. So it's $130 for a 2 MP non-zoom digital camera; not all that amazing of a deal. And most digital cameras out there these days have a built-in webcam mode anyways (I know my Fuji, which i got for $110 several months ago, has webcam mode and a 3x optical zoom. and it's 2MP native resolution (sure, 3 MP interpolated too, if you feel like it 🙂)).
