Customer Review: Horrible picture and sound quality
Picture and sound quality are VERY poor from this little device. It does not have a noise canceling device so quite often an echo can be heard. The video is small, grainy, and dark. Although the camera fits nicely on the top rim of my laptop screen, it is not very adjustable up or down/side to side and since the video window is so small, it often sets the subject off to one side or the other instead of centered. The only thing that I like about these ‘Quickcam’s’ is that they are extremely easy and straightforward to use.
I ended up purchasing the ‘Pro’ version of this camera at the same time and have been very pleased with it. I recommend to anyone considering purchasing this product to spend the extra money and get the Pro version.
