Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000

(11/06/08)
Summary: Available for a street price of Rs.3650 with 3-year warranty, this is a pretty expensive webcam, the images are rich but not smooth. Face tracking might be able to justify the cost a bit but there are webcams with a better implementation of it, though they also come at an increased price. It just seems like a lot of money for shiny cam... Read the full review
Pros: ; Face tracking, Sturdy, High quality video, Wide angle lens.
Cons: ; Manual focus, retention clip doesn't secure the camera well.

Summary: We find out whether Microsoft's entry into the world of webcams is going to take over our desks... Read the full review
Verdict: This is an upmarket webcam with a price to match, but we have seen better microphones and software on similarly priced rival products that leave us thinking you might be better off shopping elsewhere for your webcam, whether you're a Live Messenger user or not.

Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 USB Webcam


Summary: Read the full review
Verdict: 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.
Pros: ; 1.3-megapixel video; Easy to setup; Universal monitor mount
Cons: ; Skittish face tracking ability; Digital zoom reduces image quality significantly; No Windows 2000 support
