Has your little webcam taken quite the beating while constantly dispatching about your travels to family and friends?

Are you looking to upgrade?

The Logitech QuickVam Pro 9000 is a lightweight webcam that clips to any flat-panel surface – laptops or notebooks – and connects via a USB 2.0 cable to either your PC or MAC.

Its 2-megapixel sensor paired with Carl Zeiss optics (mostly found in digital SLR camera lenses) makes for crisp, sharp images, especially at a very close range. Automatic autofocus technology helps reduce vibration and refocuses the webcam as you move around.

More importantly, it is Skype-certified with full-screen video call support, and works well with AIM, Windows Live, Yahoo! Messenger, SightSpeed and iChat videoconferencing.

Additional tools out of the box include the QuickCam software that works only on Windows machines. It also comes with a slew of video effects and filters like the ’50’s Movie Reel effect or a standard fisheye effect to enhance your video experience.

Price: $72.95 | BUY

They have got this one right.. That is for sure…
I had the previous Logitech Pro 5000 and this one beats that one (which is also

good) miles away !!

The quality that I have all my family and friends reporting on Skype is just

asthonishing.
Because of that, I got a 2nd one and start using it myself during all my trips and I

could see the diference from the previous one.

The range of colors is what calls the attention, very good in bringing the true

colors of the place you are without have to deal with the controls of it.

The Auto Focus on it is just something to bring the attention to, since you can

acctually get close up on stuff that other cameras would not pick up.
I could even show what I had on my monitor to friends and they were able to read it

! (using Skype)

The lens are just great (All sony cybershot’s uses the same lens if that tells you

anything !!), to which I believe is also the reason for all this image perfecion

they have reached with the camera.

And the sound is really good, with eco cancelation and all the bells and whistles.

I mainly use it for web conference, but if you would like to make videos and send

them out, that does the job with an A+!!

You will be satisfied with this one, and the price is worht the equipment you are

going to get…

That’s why I got 2 of those already for my family !
Go for it ! more detail http://bit.ly/byFxiN
