A high-end notebook PC deserves a high-end accessory that will go well with your needs. The Logitech QuickCam Pro for notebook PCs offers 2-megapixel image transfers, great video quality and clear audio. It is designed with a built-in microphone and next-generation Logitech RightLight technology that works superbly— even in low light conditions. Its shape allows for a lower lens position for more personal, eye-to-eye contact. This enables you to talk to the other individuals with ease as there's no need to crane your neck to adjust to the web camera's position. Using RightSound Technology, it makes headset-free conversations possible as it cancels unwanted echoes during video calls.
The web camera is designed with a Carl Zeiss lens to transmit clear images and has an autofocus system so your images stay razor-sharp, even in close-ups. Seeing the caller in slow motion is finally solved with its high-definition 960x720-pixel video capture and a frame rate of up to 30 frames per second. Seeing your family and friends through Logitech's web camera is like seeing a high resolution picture since it has software-enhanced 8 million-pixel still-image capture capabilities. The web camera also offers an ultra-wide field of view and intelligent face tracking to keep you in the middle of the frame during conversations. It is further enhanced with a 12-inch desktop stand and an adjustable display clip that props on notebook PC panels up to 20mm thick.
You can also add fun and creativity with its Logitech Video Effects, a tool that adds personality in your conversations. The tool recognizes facial features and maps them to help you create three-dimensional animated characters, called avatars, or two-dimensional face accessories. It also has downloadable fun filters for video effects like fisheye, black-and-white background, neon, and more. Another great software to use during conversations is the HP Photosmart Essential that helps you capture, edit, customize and print images taken during a call.
The Logitech QuickCam Pro is packaged with a travel case to protect it when in transit. It also includes a QuickStart guide and QuickCam software CD for one-click video e-mail; QuickCapture for photos; webcam software applications for Windows and Windows Live Messenger; and Skype with free full-screen video calling.

This product was very simple to install. It also comes with its own software to make video calls or phone calls. It is free for anyone having a cam made by this company. This unit is portable. It will not clip onto a flat screen (too wide), but will on laptops. But it comes with a stand to mount the cam on. So it can be used with the desktop and the laptop when traveling. I couldn't find the required information and called support. They were very nice, but hard to understand (I speak English). The information is on a tag on the cord (a 3 foot cord). So if you are running to a desktop, you may need an extension cord (I used one for this installation).
I gave the rating 4 because we have not actually used it, only tested.
imho the best webcam for value out now

I bought this webcam for my pc. It was very easy to set up and use. Loaded the software and I was up an running in minutes. The features a good and the capture quality is great. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a webcam.
As I said earlier, I use it with my pc and I did find the cable to be too short, but I have an extension usb so that was not a real issue.
All around good deal and Logitech usually puts out a good solid product.
I was looking for a quality webcam that wouldn't break the bank. This piece is a wonderful buy, and has great picture and microphone quality. Definitely a necessity if looking for such an item.
Excellent Deal
