Webcam Help

Post by wolfway »

Hello all, i wanna buy a webcam.

i don't wanna spend more than 50 euros, cause after all, what else can u do with it than showing yourself on msn.

i'm choosing between logitech and creative, my bud says creative is real good (doesn't have a cam though) but on another forum somebody said creative is good for boxes, mp3 players but for webcams they suck and i should take logitech or microsoft

but then i read somewhere that logitech doesn't make webcams for USB 2.0 ports, even though they put it on the box (was in a review by a user who bought on of those, and he asked on the logitech forum, they told him that they don't make them for those USB ports)

so i don't know, what webcam do you guys say "but this one maarten" because i really have no fucking clue :(

thanks alot in advance

I have the Logitech Clicksmart 240. It is pretty cool it doubles as a digital camera. It hooks into my usb port. I've had no problems with it at all.

Here is a review of the cam: http://www.pcmag.co.uk/computeractive/h ... ksmart-420
