Pros: Long cord. Decent Images. Decent Speed.
Cons: Image Clairity. Price.
The Bottom Line: Buy it for a webcam for chatting. Not for photo taking. Good Deal.

| dot4f's Full Review: Kodak DVC325 Web Cam |
The Kodak DVC-325 is a-bit-above-average webcam.
Its still image quality is nothing superior, but just acceptable. The cameras ability to capture moving objects such as a hand wave is a bit above average. Colors are dull, images are blurry even when camera is focused (there is a focus knob that does help).
The camera includes a very long cord, which I find extremely helpfully in the placement of the webcam, otherwise its hard to capture very much in the image.
I bought this camera before Windows XP was released. No one had windows 2000 drivers for their cameras at the time, but Kodak did. Kodak has been very good in supporting this camera by offering new drivers for every version of windows.
While the camera may not be the best it does its job just fine. I have an Intel PC Camera also, and it takes better photos than this webcam. This one has a longer cord, and looks more attractive. Rubber feet on the bottom of the camera keep it firmly planted on almost any surface, and isnt pulled out of a set position by the cord.
There is a capture button on the top of the camera that I never use, but it does work on this camera, Ive had several in the past that didnt function properly.
No complaints, no frills \ no fuss camera.
