Ever since I have purchased this camera, almost everyone with whom I do video chatting, has appreciated the broadcast quality. I find it better than the creative labs' webcam which I used before. Also, I use Skype mainly to chat with friends around the world and I never had any problem. But the video quality is better on Yahoo messenger than Skype (though I feel Skype has better audio quality but thats a different topic).
Coming back to this webcam, the moment you hold this, you will realize that this is not a cheap product. The built is pretty sturdy and the stand is pretty versatile which can also be used for laptops. You can fit it on any monitor screen (I have tried it on 3-4 different types of monitors).
Then, the logitech software does a pretty good job. A strip down version of Apple's photobooth, you can actually get some cool effects with the software. You can add some animated effects, or use a cartoon to represent you. You can change the background too. You can also download additional effects from their website. So, you can try new effects every time and surprise your friends.I have taken some wacky pictures and videos with my friends.
The software automatically detects the different messengers installed in the computer and you can directly launch the desired messenger through the software.
The mic quality is pretty good. Though I prefer using the mic attached to my headset.
I have tried it on a Windows XP machine so I can't comment on its compatibility with Vista and Mac.
So, if you want excellent broadcast quality during video chatting and you own a XP machine, I will definitely recommend you to try this webcam and I am sure you will feel the same as me about this webcam. Get more detail about Logitech Webcam Pro 9000.
