Recently bought this webcam after starting to use Skype. My brother-in-law had purchased an HP webcam at Bestbuy and at the time I was so impressed by the picture we got, I immediately got online to research webcams. Based on reviews on [...] and here on Amazon I purchased this Logitech cam that day, received it 2 days later. Setup is extremely easy EXCEPT, I must say, for putting the camera on the monitor. Nowhere are specific direction given for it and to me (and several family members) it just wasn't obvious - there's no clip, you kind of have to just prop the swinging arm up in back into what seems like a pretty tenuous balancing act. I found it surprising I could find no mention by anyone on the internet on how to do it! Maybe I'm just dumb. Anyways, in terms of functionality, picture quality, ease of use...all rate A or A+. Was just talking to my sister-in-law on Skype last night, and now the picture from their webcam is obviously NOT very good, quite fuzzy, and the microphone apparently doesn't work well so they have to use a separate microphone! Additionally it is difficult for them to access the controls whereas the Quickcam utility is very easy to use, and the ability to manually control everything from brightness to contrast, etc. is very useful. Did not really understand in my research, or care, about the avatars and other special graphic effects, but in fact those have been very fun and everyone has enjoyed them immensely. Picture quality is so good that I was able to hold up architectural plans(which contain small font and fine lines) and explain in detail about possible additions to our home. That was so cool! Microphone quality is also excellent, picks up my husband's voice from the next room. So last night, during our conversation, my brother-in-law went and ordered one for themselves online and will be returning the HP camera! My mother-in-law was also impressed with the quality and will probably be getting one as well.Get more detail about Logitech Webcam Pro 9000.
