jammin Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision SE Review "Hi grandma, you look great. It seems that that warm climate really agrees with you". With our jobs and hectic schedules, we don't often have the time to visit or spend quality time with extended family. Although spending one-to-one time with a family member is always the most fulfilling, sometimes it's just not possible and so we send emails back and forth, or occasionally chat on the phone. There is a solution to those informal greetings and that would be a WebCam. WebCams will allow you to talk and see the person with whom you are greeting, giving more of a feel that you are right there with them. Spending time with Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad or friends is always better, but having a WebCam can take some of the emptiness away when you just can't get away from the rigours of everyday life. Maybe just seeing their smile will brighten up your day. The Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision Spercial Edition is one of the many choices you will have when considering the purchase of a WebCam. With it comes many standard features including a 4 Megapixel still image capture. Edited May 22, 2007 by jammin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardnrg Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 it's *interpolated* fake 4MP... # True 1.3 megapixel sensor with RightLight™ 2 Technology# Live video: up to 640 x 480 pixels # Still image capture: True 1280 x 960; Up to 4 megapixel** (software enhanced) so it's actually 1.3 MP, and manages the normal 0.3 MP for video any resolution above 1.3 MP (1280 x 960) is interpolated, which is why higher resolutions will have artifacts and grain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 "# Needs a Flash"? This is a web camera..... not a digital camera. Are there any web cams out there that actually have a flash? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 the Logitech Clicksmart 510 has a flash: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/download...,contentid=5310 it takes four AAA batteries, is USB 1.1, and is still available to buy brand new Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) the Logitech Clicksmart 510 has a flash: http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/download...,contentid=5310 it takes four AAA batteries, is USB 1.1, and is still available to buy brand new Yes but the ClickSmart is more a digital camera, and not really a "web cam". Usually when people think of a web cam they think of something small and cheap that sits on top of the monitor, and is usually connected to a computer 24/7. It's not something that'd be used to take still pictures except on rare occasions. A true (digital) camera on the other hand would be used more for still pictures, be connected to the computer far less, and yes, would include a flash. Granted, these days the line between a real camera and a "web cam" is almost blurred.... my ancient Cannon s-whatever could connect via USB to my computer and function as a web cam. Granted, I wouldn't do it... I'd go out and spend $50-100 on something dedicated for that job. I still think knocking it because it didn't have a flash was kinda lame. Might as well have knocked it for not having IR/Night Vision.... now, I could have understand knocking it because it didn't have automatic brightness adjustment, or something like that.
