Digital camera reviews of Logitech 720p Webcam C905
Digital camera Review: Don't buy if your notebook has a narrow width display bezel
Summary: 1 Stars
I returned this product before even installing the driver.
While I suspect the quality of the electronics is great, the mechanical design could be improved. I bought the camera to use with a T43 ThinkPad notebook. Like most modern notebooks, the display bezel is rather thin, with only about 3/8 of an inch (1 cm) between the outer edge and the display. The mounting clip is near the center of the back of the camera. While it does allow the camera to swivel to center the image, it does not have any means to offset the mounting location. As such, about 3/4 of an inch (2 cm) of the camera body extended over the active area of the screen, blocking viewing anything which might be below it.
I suppose I could remove the camera when not in use, or move the active window around to avoid covering any information, but for a high end camera, I don't think that is a reasonable trade-off.
Bottom line - I would not recommend this camera for use on a notebook which has a narrow width bezel on the display.
Digital camera Review: EZ with a MAC
Summary: 5 Stars
So easy to use with a Macintosh. Just plug it is and go. We use it with a 12 inch Mac BookDigital camera Review: Easy to Use, great video quality
Summary: 5 Stars
In less than 10 minutes out of the box I was able to use the camera to have a video call and give my long distance family a tour of my new house. The camera performed very well, great video quality (in HD mode) while walking around with it clipped to my laptop, in and out of different lighting, focusing on me, then scenery, then right back to me.
The clip on the camera takes two hands to get onto something, but once clipped on, it stayed on and didnt wobble as I walked around. The cord is a good length for use with a laptop (not too long, but not too short).
The only non-positive comment is about the stand that comes with the camera. It tips very easily and detaches from the base very easily (so you might need to glue it if you plan on using the stand). On my crowded desk, this won't be of much use to me, but the camera clips to the screen on my laptop so no big deal.
Digital camera Review: Easy, Crisp, and It Works!
Summary: 5 Stars
It took me about five minutes to install the software and make my first Skype video conference call. The video image is quite good and I also like the ability to take photos and videos. Over the last few weeks I had a video conference call with a group of Chinese professors, captured the final presentations of my college students, and taped a three month old. The price was competitive and the produce met my expectations.Digital camera Review: Even Easy for a Senior Citizen
Summary: 5 Stars
Our son and his family live 8 hours away from us so that we are not able to see our grandchildren as often as we would like. We purchased this webcam for them as well as for us. We use goggle video and it is as easy as makng a phone call. This product allows us to see our grandchildren on a regular basis and we are thrilled with the ease of usage as well as the picture quality.
