Amazon.com Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description Putting the power of Windows Live Messenger at your fingertips, the Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 takes instant messaging with family and friends to a new level of sight and sound by offering great video and crystal-clear audio with acoustic noise cancellation. Plus, you get advanced features, such as automatic face tracking software and low-light adjustment, so you feel like you're right there.



Get great video and crystal-clear audio during your Windows Live Messenger chats.


A universal attachment base fits on most monitors, including flat screens.
The Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 is optimized for Windows Live Messenger, which is used by the largest worldwide instant messenger community with over 200 million users. Three key features give you a superior Windows Live Experience. First, the Windows Live Call Button makes it easy to start a video call. Simply press the button to see who's online, and you're on your way to a video call. Second, with the LifeCam Dashboard you can access video effects and control your webcam from the Windows Live Messenger window. Lastly, with One-Touch Blogging, a single click allows you to upload to Windows Live Spaces, an "online scrapbook" that lets you easily post blogs, photo albums, and personal music lists.

The VX-3000's automatic face tracking software, which takes advantage of the camera's pan, tilt, and zoom controls, follows you so you don't disappear off-screen. Meanwhile, the camera automatically adjusts for low-light conditions for improved video quality, and a built-in unidirectional microphone with acoustic noise cancellation provides crystal-clear audio. Video effects give you a fun way to express yourself, and last but not least, the camera's universal attachment base fits on most monitors, including flat screens. Alternatively, the camera can sit directly on your desk.

Note that while the VX-3000 is optimized for use with Windows Live Messenger, Microsoft LifeCams also work with other instant messaging programs, such as Yahoo Messenger and AOL Instant Messenger.

If you want the next level of performance from your LifeCam, consider the Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000, which adds high definition video capabilities, a wide angle lens, a 3x digital zoom, and a high-speed USB connection. View a comparison of the LifeCam VX-3000 and VX-6000.

4 out of 5 stars nice for the price   November 19, 2009
Joseph Jepsen (Knoxville, TN)
This cam does what I bought it to do; allows me to chat with family in other states. Yes, it doesn't do so well in low light, but nothing that can't be fixed by turning on a light or using the low light enhancement feature.

One missing feature for most webcams, including this one, a screw on the bottom to attach on a tripod. My one complaint is that it is hard to find a good place to position the camera.. either it's too high and you have a huge forehead or it's too low and everyone is looking up your nose. When you do find a place to position the camera, the base makes the camera fall over, or the the usb cord pulls it out of position.



5 out of 5 stars For 22 bucks? Whadya kidding? Buy this for a great cheap cam!   November 14, 2009

4 out of 5 stars Great Webcam   October 28, 2009
Richard Perks Sr. (Las Vegas)
The price was right & the quality was exceptional. I have used the camera on several video chat sites with consistently good results. I would have preferred a higher pixel density, but that would have been far more costly. This is an exceptional value.
