  • Happy Cam

    Nov 24 '00
    Pros: Easy install/setup USB interface decent quality pic's and video
    Cons: low lighting problems

    Summary: My wife and I have been taking pictures of our kids ever since they were born, and then we had to have them developed and have multiple prints made up so we could send them to all of our relatives. Then we discovered Kinko's, we ... read more

  • Acceptable basic webcam

    Jun 16 '02
    Pros: Cheap, got it for $41, acceptable image quality
    Cons: Software is not that friendly, only good as a webcam (not a camera)

    Summary: INTENDED USE I was looking for a webcam that would be used in videoconferencing via NetMeeting or Yahoo Messenger. I had initially bought the Quickcam Express on offer at $34, which I thought was a good buy. On using it, I found the image ... read more

  • Creative Labs Video Blaster 3

    Nov 01 '01
    Pros: Clever software turns the camera into motion-detecting security system; decent (but not great) quality.
    Cons: It is quite tough to focus and images appear reddish in colour.

    Summary: I think in this case you get more than you pay for. It was easy to install and the software package is a good idea. It does have a slight red tint, and takes awhile to get focused. Maybe it is not the standard of most Creative Labs hardware, but you'd do ... read more

  • Excellent entry level webcam

    Oct 29 '01
    Pros: Keenly Priced, drivers and utilities are top-notch
    Cons: Poor low light performance, colour reproduction not perfect

    Summary: The VideoBlaster 3 is Creative's latest webcam series, coming in at £55 ($75), and from my experience, it is a very solid performer. The unit itself is made from strong, high quality plastic, with none of that "budget" look that is often ... read more

  • Webcam Go is a waste of $$$

    Jun 12 '01
    Pros: Cheap, easy to use (camera)
    Cons: Hard to use (software), unreliable, poor photos, poor webcam, not worth the $$

    Summary: Alright, alright, let's start off with the nitty gritty... What's bad about the camera? Now, let me warn you, I hated this camera. I paid $99 for it and a week later, when I finally figured out all the software and used ... read more

  • Webcam may be, Go not!

    Apr 11 '01
    Pros: Reasonable webcam (for netmeeting)
    Cons: Very bad Software, bad image quality for digital pictures

    Summary: This has not been my first webcam. Just few months after having bought a regular (not a"Go") Webcam III, Creative Labs came out with this new one. I really liked the idea of combining a webcam with a digital camera and I was annoyed by the fact that ... read more

  • Creative Paperweight

    Mar 03 '01
    Pros: the design is just adorable
    Cons: all it IS is a nice thing to look at

    Summary: Well, I am sure that many of you are wondering what exactly I mean by the title "Creative Paperweight." I simply mean that it, for me, was mearly nothing more than that. The Creative cam was actually the second web cam that I purchased. The first ... read more

  • Beats the you know what out of a still digital camera for the same price!

    Feb 09 '01
    Pros: Small, supports 640x480 video, close focus, audio & video
    Cons: 640x480 videos limited to 15 fps. No zoom

    Summary: For years I've wanted to get images on my computer. I've tried various things, even hooking a camcorder up to my 3dfx VooDoo3 3500 TV's composite input. But none of the pictures I have gotten have ever been as good as this little camera. Some ... read more

    Pros: Portable, easy to use, voice recorder for taking short notes
    Cons: can't listen to notes on the go *smiles*

  • WebCam, How does it work?* **3rd UPDATE***

    Jan 07 '01
    Pros: cute little gadget
    Cons: won't send live pictures? correction

    Summary: Since I can't write another opinion, ***this is my 3rd update. The WebCam works!! DO NOT CLICK ON THE WEBCAM ICON. DO get the NETMEETING download from MSN. Then, be sure to put names in the directory of those you wish to "talk" with. When you bring ... read more

    Dec 31 '00
    Pros: Cheap, Great quality, USB interface makes it work well
    Cons: Can't be set to look up, Doesn't work too well in low light

    Summary: When shopping around for a webcam to entertain my mother's idea of videoconferencing, I sprung for a cheap Webcam 3. To my surprise it turned out to be an excellent webcam. There are two aspects that must be addressed. First there is the hardware portion ... read more
