 THE BEST Webcam I have ever had July 8, 2008

For me the big debate is over, I finally know what Webcam to buy & recommend. This is THE webcam to get.
I spent months browsing reviews, articles & opinions wondering which Webcam to get, all products, including this one, seem to get mixed reviews.
I was still uncertain but needed to buy and went for the Logitech Webcam Pro 9000. The comments about image quality from the Carl Zeiss Lens swayed it for me.
I don't regret it at all.
I did initially have a minor Vista64 Install issue where after installing the included software I could no longer see my networked PCs in windows explorer. I could still access them but not see them. One day, after a normal scheduled Microsoft Windows update, the problem just went away and I've been fine ever since.
I love the quality of this camera, both in terms of designs/build and particularly the fabulous picture and sound.
In Skype it's performance capabilities are automatically recognised and Higher definition video is used by default. This benefits the person watching your video of course, you would need them to have one for you to benefit.
The audio is also excellent and doesn't appear to suffer from the loopthrough or feedback issues I've read about on some Webcams with internal Mics.
The included software is a little gimmicky, but worthwhile. It's quite fun for the kids to mysteriously make clothes and accessories appear on them real time during chats. The Face recognition driven auto-panning feature that the software allows works very nicely.
I'm getting a Mac with a built in Webcam, but I understand that there are OSX drivers for this camera so I intend to keep using the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000. I will also be buying some more for my family so I can benefit from their improved picture quality.
One last thing I'll mention is that it is also very practical, it sits equally well on top of my 22" TFT as it does on a 17" CRT, or on the Desk. I also like the fact that you get a red glowing ring around the Logitech logo to inform you that the webcam is active.
I love this camera!
Top Marks Logitech.

Not much to say about this. Performs very well in most conditions including very low light. One of few cams to do Skype in "HD" where the picture quality blows other services away (quadruple resolution and double frame rates).
 be very wary! July 7, 2008

This item is supposed to be wonderful!
I have purchsed it and it had the wrong version installation disc in the box 11.7 and not 11.5 as should be re Logitech themselves.
Upon installing this disc it has caused the computer to crash and now will not come back on as it has lost all drivers etc.
Be carefull what you get!
Great, great and great! June 20, 2008

If you were like me, your logitech software (features) was all over the place. Well this camera is truly my no 1 choice for a very convenient webcam. Firstly, when you buy the software you should always, must, must, must and must use the software that comes with it. Make sure there's no spyware, virus scanning or anything of that nature. Also make sure that no programs that is blocking full func. of the program. I've seen reviews which do complain about how it doesn't work, software wise. The software is the most important way of making the webcam give you the fullest quality.
Also what people don't make clear is that when you have the camera on your screen. People think you cannot tilt it up and down. This is not that case, it can tilt all the way to the ceiling and to the floor.
Moving on, simply. It's a great webcam, full of amazing, mind blowing features. Such as auto focus (manual), universal clip, great mic, superb video quality. Sup-parsed my Sphere Orbit MP camera by far!
You can find more information at other sites, but please remember that you've got to make sure you have all the latest drivers, specs (for computer) etc. Then it should work, vista works as good as xp does.
Overall, 5 stars!
Brilliant webcam! June 14, 2008

Excellent in all respects. Problem free installation with XP Pro. Superb picture.The Right Light function is outstanding even in the dullest conditions. Many compliments received on Skype on both picture & audio quality. I previously used a Logitech QuickCam Express Plus which compared with this cam pales into insignificance! To say I am delighted with the product would be an understatement, it has exceeded all expectations.
