Kevin told us about the new Logitech hi-def webcam which shoots wide-screen video but don’t overlook the Microsoft LIfeCam VX-6000 which shoots 1.3 MP at 30 fps. The LifeCam has all the usual cam features you would expect like pan and tilt and face-tracking, although the tracking is disabled at resolutions higher than 1024×768. For a complete review of the LifeCam vx-6000 check out Everything USB who have thoughtfully included lots of photos and sample output from the web cam. A really useful feature is the clip for attaching the camera to a monitor. It is nice and wide enough that it should also fit on most slate Tablet PCs, something that other web cams I’ve tried will not do. What is the reviewer’s verdict after testing the VX6000?
A good web cam for users with multiple people to put in the shot, or single users who don’t mind extra space around the subject and features an easy to use, quality control panel. The LifeCam VX-6000 will be worth the money for most users.
