Another new toy for GPa!
« on: June 25, 2009, 06:15:08 PM »
For my birthday some of the gifts were gift cards!   :hugme:  :party:

So I put them together and went to Best Buy and picked up a web cam for my desk top PC.   :08:



Here's some specs:
    * Still image capture up to 2.0 megapixels (up to 8.0 megapixels with included software interpolation); video captures up to 1600 x 1200 resolution, up to 30 fps
    * CMOS sensor with RightLight 2 technology provides sharp images even in dim light
    * Ideal for video calls and videoconferencing

    * Carl Zeiss optics with autofocus function ensures sharp, precise image captures and video even when close up
    * Built-in microphone with RightSound technology reduces ambient noise for crystal-clear communication
    * Logitech Video Effects software with image filters, face imaging accessories and avatars lets you personalize your appearance to add style to your video mails and chats

Cool! I need one myself.

Carl Zeiss lenses are the best you can get. I have them on my digital camcorder and digital camera. The images are much cleaner. ;)

You're right Les, I had forgotten about that limitation on the video chat part of Skype, having more than two people on is only for voice chat.
