I use a Mac Pro with a 30" monitor. For all that tech base there is no built in web cam so I went looking. I tried out one of the original Mac iSight web cams but low light level support was poor and the image was dark and grainy. After reading lots of forum posts on Apple's Discussions and Logitech's Forums, I settled on the Logitech QickCam Pro 9000. The optics are superb providing a much better picture than the iSight. The low light level increase is nothing short of fantastic especially when combined with Ecamm Network's iGlasses software. There is a downside. While Leopard does support UVC natively, it automatically defaults to a very low frame rate so the video is clumsy and jerky in iChat. This is a problem for either Apple to address by writing a better driver or some third party to create drivers with adjustable resolution and frame rates. Perhaps Logitech will do so but for now while the camera is not all that well supported on the Mac I still have to it give a five star rating because it is so good.Get more detail about Logitech Webcam Pro 9000.
