Digital camera reviews of Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000
Digital camera Review: Average webcam
Summary: 3 Stars
There is nothing too amazing about this webcam, standard features with reasonable frame rate. I've bounced it around since having it and it still works fine.Digital camera Review: Awesome cam for the money. But be patient when configuring!
Summary: 5 Stars
It took a little while to fine tune the settings- Dont expect it to work right out of the box!) Most of the problems occur when trying to configure the camera to work with your messenger (I use MSN 6.1) but once youre done, it is an excellent webcam. I tried the Quickcam Express which was horrible and the Quickcam zoom came highly recommended. But for the money, I went for the Pro 4000 and Im happy with it. Also, go for the picture quality and the zoom. The other add-ons (which are nice), you really won't use.Digital camera Review: Awful on yahoo
Summary: 3 Stars
The first thing I want to say is that the difference in quality you get out of this cam is very evident depending on what IM program you use. I used Yahoo for a while with family and we were all about ready to toss the thing in the garbage. However, since Logitech recommends MSN messenger we thought we'd give it a shot. Huge difference. The images were more clear, the sound was better and there were fewer "freezes".
However, it was still hardly outstanding and you must be prepared to spend quite a bit of time with your family and friends tweaking the distance of the cam from their face, the sound levels, the volume on their speakers, etc. And if they change any of that the next time you videoconference you'll need to start over. This thing is NOT plug and play for most people.
Face tracking is utterly useless. I don't know what miracle people are using to get it to work but for me all it does is make the cam jump all over the place. If you're impossibly frustrated with it try switching to MSN Messenger, go through the sound setup, see if that does the trick, if not then move the cam closer to your face and then turn down the volume on your speakers.
Digital camera Review: Awsome Cam! Highly Recommend
Summary: 5 Stars
I am new to using web cams but I do know a great product. The camera is extremly simple to setup, you'll be up and going within a matter of minutes. The picture quality is excellent! The room can be completly dark and the light from the monitor is enough to have a great picture. The camera auto focuses great! The camera and stand are sturdy and do not move out of place. The software is lacking in options however I don't imagine anyone buying the camera to use with the software. I've used the cam on pretty much all of the instant messangers and it work great! There is no choppy frame transition, completly smooth! I did find it works best with MSN messenger 6.1. Highly recommend this product!Digital camera Review: BE aware!

Hi !
I want to say something about this camera!
Be aware that amazon sells a version of this camera without the flat panel clip!!!!
Some other stores have the flat panel clip with it where you can attach the camera to a flat panel screen.
I bought the camera this week and the clip was not included. that is probably why they sell the camera so cheap.
despite that i recommend the camera.
