WoW. I've used this Quickcam Pro 9000 for 5 calls already with friends and family and coud not believe the ease of setup and use. I loaded the software, ran the test features then tweaked the setup to match my personal preferences and was off and running. My only complaint is that I didn't do this sooner. The clarity is unbelievable for home use. I have used professional cameras on much larger systems and had much more difficulty. The ease of use of the 9000 is great. Highly recommend the purchase due to lens/picture quality and just plain ease of use.

I bought two of these cameras. When I installed the first one I was thrilled. Sharp picture, easy to use, good features. Later I installed the second one. Exact same model but blurry picture. Looks like a cheap camera. Amazing two different units of the same model would have such different quality.
I'd probably recommend it as long as you keep the box and receipt so can exchange it if you get a lemon.

Pros: Very high HD quality video and completely usable audio. Application set is nice and driver installation was flawless.
Cons: Does not reliably focus beyond a foot or so away from the lens. My monitor is mounted in the far corner of my desk and the auto-focus cannot distinguish between my face's distance and infinity. The back wall of the office is in focus, but I am not.
Summary: An excellent, albeit expensive top-of-the-line webcam for near field usage.

This webcam has the best quality out there for the money. I recently updated the software and it made an already nice cam even better. This webcam makes video calls enjoyable due to the sharp clarity of its picture and the nice quality of the sound from its built in microphone. I had an old Logitech webcam that worked fine for many years and upgraded to this one a couple of years ago. The quality blew me away. A great product

I bought this, originally, when it was way less expensive. I am unsure of why you guys raised the price over there, but hey, I still have one and I'm still happy with it.
In my opinion the best features are:
-The autofocus
-The RightLight settings
-The Shape/Style of it
The autofocus is very, very useful, especially when recording things which move quickly across the sceen and whatnot. In fact it's probably even better auto-focusing than my 4 Megapixel camera.
The RightLight settings are probably my favorite part. For example I could change the settings so that it could pick up the light of a TV and me next to it, while I'm in a dark room, without any blur or light glare that's just too hard to figure out what's what in the picture/video/webcam session.
I do very much like how it's set up to work, there's a grip on the back of the webcam, and then two prongs which are attached by means of hinges. For example it could be placed on just about anything, you can use the bottom prong as a stand, or you could use the grip to put it on your monitor and the two prongs to hold it up. And, after that, you can keep the prongs in one place and move the lens freely as you wish, making it easy to get the right angle. There's also a great part about it where the microphone is located on the side of the webcam, which I find to be very convenient which means no headsets, and when you talk towards the screen you're talking towards the camera.
My only dislikes are that the software for it, being the little video filters tend to malfunction sometimes, and that they also somehow apparently corrupt themselves.
If you want a good deal on a webcam, and a good webcam at that, you want this.
The picture attached is a picture of my Seagate Freeagent External Harddrive, which I thought would be a good thing to take a picture of seeing as the pattern is quite detailed, and lit.

I guess I must be the exception that proves the rule; I bought (and returned) 2 of these cams because the images and videos were blurry. It appears as though the focus is a bit "off", and neither auto nor manual focus corrects this problem. In contrast, I have an Orbit AF and it is spot on! The images and video are crisp, sharp and tightly focused.
Perhaps I'm expecting more than the Pro 9000 can deliver?

I run the technology group for an urban school district and this past year we implemented unified communications to our entire district. This solution included video conferencing to every single workstation in the district. During this implementation we tested dozens of webcams, attempting to find the best balance between performance and price. We found a good option that minimized cost and still looked OK. The QuickCam Pro 9000 did not make the cut. It was too expensive. However, it was by far the best performer of any webcam we tested and we tested ALL the major players cams. When it was time for the IT Department to purchase webcams.... we all got the QuickCam Pro 9000. I even bought one for my home office.

This webcam surpassed my expectations. I use it mostly with Skype and everyone keeps asking why my video and sound is so much better than theirs and others.
Just wish they bundled a monitor capture routine so we could use it as a security camera too and check it online.

This is by far a perfect webcam. I mean the audio and video is as good as any high end camcorders. I use it for recording my home videos and the quality is astounding sharp. I am impressed and will certainly buy the upgrade to it. The only down side is that it will not record in any widescreen 16:9 format. Other than that the videos look sharp on my flatscreen tv. Totally satisfied

We use these at the school I work at, especially for video chats with other schools. A teachers will hook up one of these to their laptop, along with a projector, and transmit an image/audio of his/her class to another class/school, while they transmit their images/audio back to us, and we project it up on a large screen where is looks pretty darn good (since we have them using the PRO 9000, too).
As a test, we'd set up three different webcams on three identical laptop computer and compared the images received. While the other webcams (a Microsoft LifeCam and a cheaper Logitech) could be set to transmit some pretty nice quality STILL images, as soon as movement was introduced to the equation, they became jerky and had a lag-time. Even at the best video resolution settings on the PRO 9000, movement was still quite good, and became very smooth if we took it down to 1.3 megapixels. We were asked by a parent if this was worth the extra money for keeping in touch with their child studying overseas, and we felt strongly that the smoothness of video with little loss of sharpness was worth the extra ten or twenty dollars so that their conversations could be natural and un-distracted by technological shortcomings.

It would be nice if the software included an OS X version. This camera was recommended by Skype, and Logitech has always been Mac Friendly. I read that it was compatible with native drivers, so I purchased one.
It's nice enough, but due to lack of mac software of any kind, the still capture is useless, and there is no way to adjust anything at all. Further, I don't think it's taking advantage of any of the additional features.
I knew it was going to be questionable, but having purchased it to skype with, it does do that on a very straightforward level.

After having struggled with a 2004-era webcam for a few years I decided to get a new one. The 9000 had good reviews but I wasn't expecting it to be THIS much better.
The cam sits on top of my Dell monitor perfectly, and tucks behind the screen out of sight when not in use (kudos to the hardware designers on that one, very well thought out).
Light level adjustments work perfectly, keeping faces and the rest of the room displayed very naturally seemingly in any light.
The focus is spot on and the video picture quality is better than a lot of small DV cams I've used.
The bundled software is very good - it tracks your face very well, making the face tracker useful (you can move around without having to move the cam) and the facial additions (give yourself a goatee, viking hat, snorkel etc) a fun extra.

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the image and how easy it was to learn all of the adjustments. I was equally surprised that the nice even and accurate video actually surpassed the audio quality. Since I will use it for webinars, the audio is even more important to me than the image quality. I wish I could trade in a bit of its exceptional image quality for a better more level audio quality that does not get better and then worse.. Maybe it is my new Dell Laptop's sound card, so I will have to try it on another computer to be certain.

i love love love the quality on this webcam.
you can be creative wit the settings because you can change the saturation and brightness( i forgot a the names of a few other settings brightness and saturation is not all) in the image, you can make yourself look differente and sometimes even better, just fun to mess around with.
of course it's easy to use: put a disk in, let it install( which takes 2 minutes) then just plug in the usb tip of the webcam and your done.crazzy easy and fast.
looks great very stylish and worth every single solitary cent.
overall the features are amazing also the face tracking system is perfect.
the quality is superb.
auto-focus is good too.
right sound technology and and right light 2 technology both work awesome.
i cannot talk about every thing but i can say that every thing writin on the website is as said.
hope you get it. amazing product.
