Works on a Mac with OS X June 20, 2008

Hi just a short note for fellow Mac OS X users, just to say the Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 Webcam works just like the iSight webcam, but a third of the cost and no extra software needed just plug and play,
Good webcam March 14, 2008
S. Joshi (London, UK)
I had read the reviews of this webcam and some other webcams too. I decided to go for it with a thought that it would be a good piece justifying the cost and I am glad that it stood up to my expectations. The installation was easy. As warned by a previous reviewer, I didn't install the software using the CD provided. I visited the logitech website and downloaded it from there and installed. The webcam was up and running on my HP laptop in minutes.
I mainly use it with Skype where it performs well. I tried using it with Yahoo! IM however, it appears to hang for few seconds intermittently. Didn't try with any other IM.
Overall, this should be a decent buy. Would suggest to read other reviews where people had been having problems and check if you have similar hardwares.
The "Home Delivery Network Limited" who were supposed to deliver this item simply put the box outside my house in driveway and left as none of us was at home. I obviously didn't get the package. Thanks to Amazon who prompty sent me another item for free via Royal Mail.
 Worth it for what it is January 3, 2008

Well, i didn't know whether to get a webcam at this price. I use webcams for making videos for my site, so didn't know if the spec would be up to any good, especially the built in microphone.
The video clarity on the product is not amazing, but it isdefinately good enough for what i and most people will need. I also was impressed by the aduio quality. The webcam picks up voice very well, even from a few meters away. The still shot mode is good as well, with not much blur and good focus and lighting.
STANDARD FEATURES = 9/10
Now onto the extra features. The software installed very qucikly on XP and Vista, and if you do as the instruction say (not plugging the webcam in until the software is installed) it will pick it up fine on both OS's (haven't tried Linux yet). The avatars are also pretty fun to mess around with video calling. It works good on Skype and was smooth even when talking to people in the US (Internet connection dependant though). There are also some good downloadable features you can customise the avatars with (the wizards best).
The advanced features include Righlight technology and Rightsound. Rihgtlight boosts the lighting when your in a low lit room, however i found if i was using artificial lighting, the camera constantly flickered. Right sound may be the reason why the audio is good, but i hadn't turned it off as it isa default feature.
EXTRA FEATURES = 9/10
To sum up then, i think that this camera is well worth the money, and you will most likely be pleased with it. It is packed wth extra features, making it fun and more usable. The sandard features are also good, providing clear video and crisp audio. Basically the fundamentals of a good webcam.
OVERALL = 9/10
So much entertainment! January 2, 2008

I had seen someone using this webcam at work playing around with the avators and visual effects. I was so impressed that I asked my husband to buy this for me as a Christmas present.
On first attempt at installation the software wouldn't detect the webcam though the vista operating system did. However a quick download of the latest software from logitech's website sorted this out. I think the webcam came with version 10 and we ended up with greater success using version 11 from the website. The picture quality is superb and I'd recommend using the rightlight option rather than altering it yourself.
All in all it's a very smart webcam with an abundance of crazy features. My husband and I were rolling about in laughter trying out the avatars and visual effects!
Excellent Webcam November 8, 2007

I bought two (one for my parents) and have been impressed with the overall quality. However, I had real problems getting them to work across Skype but no issues with MS Live Messenger, where picture and sound exceeded my expectations. I'm about to buy another for the in-laws; may be I don't need such a high quality product!
