    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Face tracking, image effects, image quality

    Weaknesses:Preferences do not always "stick." You have to turn on face tracking manually after using any of the digital effects. Did not fit my Toshiba Satellite M55 very well

    Overall Evaluation: This is a very svelte, stylish webcam for notebook PCs. Unfortunately the clip does not work well on my Toshiba Satellite M55 laptop due to the rounded edge on the top back of the screen. Sometimes I can get it to sit still, but usually it will end up sliding out of position after some time. The spring loaded clip is meant for the standard boxy laptops and fits well on a Thinkpad or probably most other brands of laptop. The performance of the webcam itself is very nice and I was very satisfied with its performance other than a little quirks in the software and the clip design.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Picture quality, compact size, carrying case

    Weaknesses:Cumbersome software, clip can be improved

    Overall Evaluation: This camera provides excellent picture quality. I have been using it with Video Skype and have no complaints. The clip is not secure enough and it's usefulness will greatly depend on the particular laptop model. I found the software installation and use unintuitive and cumbersome. It sure looks pretty but could be more streamlined. Otherwise I would definitely recommend this webcam.

    Strengths:

    Weaknesses:The price might be a little too high.

    Overall Evaluation: Like the Logitech QuickCam Orbit MP, this webcam has a build-in microphone that can save you some space and money in buying another external microphone. It uses a USB 2.0 connection so that video and audio stream can be transmitted from the same plug. It is very light weighted and compact to clamp on any laptop. I highly recommend this webcam to anyone who would like to own the first webcam for their laptop.

    Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

    Strengths: Good picure quality....Size, it's very small and light.

    Weaknesses:Does not fit certain models of notebooks. Can get a bit hot.

    Overall Evaluation: I would have rated this webcam higher than three stars if not for one thing...If it would fit my notebook!!! I have a Compaq R3275US and because of my notebook design, my monitor has a small lip on the end of it, it does not fit on the top of my notebook. So I have had to arrange a different setup for it to work and I mounted it on my desk. Other than that I really don't have many complaints. It does get kind of warm but that's not really an issue for me. Picture quality has been good, as long as your in good light. If it's in dim light, picture quality does deminish a bit. Overall a good camera, but I wish it would have had a different clip so it fit my notebook.

    Duration of ownership: 1 Days

    Strengths: Small size, carrying case, quality of picture and built in microphone

    Weaknesses:clip to hold the camara to the computer

    Overall Evaluation: The quality of the picture and microphone are almost equal to the larger logitech fusion webcam. The clip on the Notebooks Pro doesn't hold well on a thicker tablet PC, but it is still fuctional. The software is easy to use and install, but is an earlier version than the software that came with the Logitech Fusion. This is ultmately not a big issue since there was an even newer version on line.
