Cheapest Logitech Webcam Pro 9000


This may be one of the best current (5/08) webcams at the time of writing this, for the money.

First - the Zeiss glass cant be beat. Photographers will know that this is a top-notch glass, and a real surprise for me to find it available on a webcam rather than DSLR lens.

Second - Living in a dark brownstone (Brooklyn), this webcam makes it look like we're in a brightly lit room, accurately bringing out detail and shadow without too much contrast. The auto white balancing is also quite accurate, whether indoors in our reds/yellows/browns apartment with incandescent or flourescent lighting, or in the garden of greens and sunshine.

Third - the microphone quality was good enough that I threw out my headset based on what my callers were hearing. Even across the room, they commented that the cam's microphone was just fine, and no headset was needed.

The options you could throw away on this are the silly little overlays and cartoons (good for kids), and the tracking option. Just not accurate or smart enough to be useful.
