I bought the WebCam Go! because of its dual-purpose nature - plug it in and it's a webcam; unplug it and it's a digital camera. As a webcam, it is more than satisfactory - I don't have any complaints at all. The software it is packaged with is intuitive and easy to operate. Having said this, if you *only* want a webcam, I would recommend you buy a different one, as the Go! is much more expensive than its webcam-only rivals. The beauty of this camera is that you can unplug it and take photos as though it was a digital camera. The 2xAAA batteries last for approx. 300 photos, and the camera will store up to 96 photos at a time. The maximum ... Read the complete review

This camera makes a nice web-cam on its own, but add the extra feature of a digital camera and it's a superb value. I used to have a Connectix QuickCam VC (parallel port), and was always unhappy with the lag time when videoing, but lived with it. I used to work in a computer store, and when we tested out one of these little WebCamGo's, I was so surprised at how much faster the frames appear. I think the USB connection helps somewhat. Regardless, with 4 Mb of built in memory, this camera holds 90 images at 640x480 and 200 at 320x240, which is outstanding in my book. It has a timer so you can include yourself in the occasional shot, runs off of 2 AAA ... Read the complete review

Although this cam is a little expensive it offers a medium between sleek looks and scalability. The main selling point of this cam is the fact that it can be disconnected and using 4xAAA batteries it can have a memory of up to 90 pictures at a resolution of 640x480. Because this camera uses the fast USB interface it can achieve an acceptable framerate and if your processor is fast enough you can expect decent quality at 320x200 at 16fps which is more than adequate for videoconferencing. The camera's default output is JPEG but this can be changed to raw 16bit and 24bit images however due to the increase in filesize of these uncompressed ... Read the complete review

This camera is very easy to use, since as well as a software controller, it has a push-button on the top, so you can take quick snaps if you want to. It's also possible to record video clips on it. The camera can be focused, and provided you have bright enough light, takes reasonably sharp images. If you have it set up in front of a window, it'll be fine - it seems to have difficulty adjusting colours in dim light, since everything comes out blue-ish! Doesn't bother me, as I have blue hair anyway, but it may be a feature you don't appreciate :) The lead is quite long, so you can take pictures away from the computer, to a small extent. I bought ...
