Creative Labs Video Blaster WebCam 3

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

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...

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.

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...

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

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...

Pros: easy installation, low price
Cons: poor image quality, low light problems, internet nightmares

i bought this as an inexpensive alternative to the 3com home connect cam for a cam page on my site. this could not have been a worse decision. trying to 'document' dorm life in a poorly lit room was nightmarish. never did i get a good picture -- not...

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

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...

Pros: cheap, usb, nifty "monitor" software, decent image qualtiy
Cons: severe lighting and contrast problems

The WebCam 3 seems like a great webcam at a first glance. 640X480 resolution, full color, usb, $39. I decided to buy the thing and give it a shot. Now that I have it, I can say that although this isn't bad, it did not live up to my expectations.

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

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...

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

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...

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

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...

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

since we don't seem to have a section for the WebCam Go Plus, it seems I have to place this Epinion here

I just purchased one of these WebCams Go Plus cameras the other day (I collect cameras *smiles*)
and after reading the reviews I...

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

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...

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

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...

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

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...

Pros: cheap and fast
Cons: needs a lot of light

I found this to be a great little webcam for the price. with just a little searching i found it for under 50 dollars. it comes with some great extras and is relatively easy to use if you have a normal system. if your system is held together buy tape,...

Pros: Simple
Cons: Still learning

I thought what it would be like to see and create my own video and still pics. I have learned from watching other people do their stuff. I bought this video cam at the store and downloaded the software. Found out I can not only record and take pictures...
