3 out of 5 stars Customer Review   February 16, 2008
I got this camera, it is very simple and picture quality is very good and its a good camera for personal use.


4 out of 5 stars Good video quality with a little fisheye   January 14, 2008
I only use the video portion of the camera and use cell phone for audio, so I haven't tested the audio aspects. The video quality is very good, although it does tend to have a fisheye effect that is noticeable.


4 out of 5 stars Webcam   January 14, 2008
I like the webcam alot, but I am a little disappointed with the resolution. I figured it would have been more clear since it claims to be 7.0 megapixel.


4 out of 5 stars Really great, EXCEPT!   January 4, 2008
Got my wonderful Creative webcam, proudly installed the software, uninstalled the software, installed the software, uninstalled the software. Anyway you get the idea. Not put off by dumb machines, I tried several changes in the default layout. It seems the layout the Creative believes is the living end, AIN'T! I had to change it to AVI and the Intel Indedo video compresser and changed the audio compresser to MPEG layer-3.

Best it's little heart, within range it follows me around when I move in the chair, keeping me centered in the picture. I like that.

I was this close to sending it back (*) because I had a problem!



3 out of 5 stars no linux support   December 31, 2007
Well, I haven't used this camera much. But, I had to pirate windows just to get it working, which is too bad. In other words, there isn't a linux driver for this webcam. I wish there was an easier way to determine if there is linux support for a model or not.

Using the webcam, I noticed ALLOT of blurring. This was due to the exposure setting being set to 'auto'. I turned that off, and set it to 1. Its a little darker, but I would prefer to just get a lamp to correct that. I still haven't gotten the hang of setting the white balance.

Despite these bumps, I got the webcam for a good price, and I think it will suit my purposes just fine, so I'm quite happy. I would expect that if I wanted better than this cam, I would have to get a real digital video camera.

On a side note, this experience highlights how much better ubuntu is over windows2000. It took me 2 days to install windows, with the first attempt crashing, and I had to start over. All the drivers/updates/reboots. I know w2k is old, but I thought it was supposed to be the best out of 2k/xp/vista. Ah well.
