I purchased this camera from my local Best Buy. The first one I received was defective, but Best Buy efficiently exchanged it for a working one. I found it easy to set up and operate on my HP laptop. My previous webcam was an old Intel cheapy and this was a great improvement.
Don't buy it because HP didn't provide drivers so the product is useless. I have a $5 frys generic webcam plugged it in and worked simple driver install.
There is a horrible static noise for any party you try to chat. I have exchanged the camera and tried on multiple computers to no avail. HP should recallthis defective equipment.
The software is easy to install but seems entirely too combersome for simple camera. WAY TO EXPENSIVE FOR THE QUALITY.. SHAME ON YOU HP... WE EXPECT BETTER~
What's great about it:?Mounting system What's not so great:?Very, very poor image/video quality "As a regular HP customer I ended up buying this "true" 2 megapixel HP webcam, mainly because of its specifications and the sale price at BestBuy. I wanted to upgrade from a cheap Logitech webcam (0.3 megapixel) to enhance the video chat with my family.
i wanted to do video chat with AIM and whaddya know? IT DID NOT WORK WITH AIM! i tried to different types of AIM and two different computers that were both compatible for this webcam....on the BOX it says thaat it works with AIM, but no! it doesn't.
This camara is the one everybody must have, clear picture and sound, easy to install, HP always trustlable.
It's too bad that HP coupled such awful software with what looks like might be a decent camera. The camera is nicely made, and has a very versatile mount that works just about anywhere.
instead i bought the logitech pro for notebooks for my mini mac.
the picture quality is particularly poor and the microphone has and awful buzzing sound to it on the other end.
