Pros: It was easy to install
Cons: Poor quality images,stopped working after 3 months of very little use

I purchased my Logitech Webcam in April 2001. It was fairly easy to install the software, but the instructions for actually creating a "webcam" leave alot to be desired unless you choose to upload your images to their partner "Spotlife". Within a few...

Pros: Works "okay" in good light
Cons: Big cord, too many to list

This has got to be the worst webcam ever created. If you want something cheap and gives you poor, poor, poor picture quality, run for this camera. Otherwise stay away from it, you want something much better, even if you have to pay a little more for...

Pros: Small, affordable
Cons: Poor quality, small picture, no auto-focus,

The meaning of express: Easy to use, low on quality. Skimmed features so that people don't get confused. You may now kindly proceed with this review.

Functionality - This Camera will record video, take pictures and gives you access to...

Pros: Takes pictures quickly, small and compact
Cons: Grainy quality at times

I read a review about this camera and I have to disagree with them. I bought this cam back when everyone was starting to use the "webcam" thing at home. This and one other pro model were the only reasonably priced cameras at the store at the time of...

Pros: Cheap, easy setup & use, snapshot button on top, solid build, its a Logitech :)
Cons: Poor quality images, No motion detector, Manual focus, Tough to adjust direction on the stand

I am a boarding student and wanted to get a webcam with which I could email pics of myself and video chat with my family. As a newcomer to webcams, there were 3 things which attracted me to the Quickcam Express:

1) $50 only - more expensive...

Pros: Inexpensive, easy to setup. Logitech Quality. USB interface.
Cons: Not a high quality imaging device. Software is lacking.

I have had this Webcam for almost a year now, and have had no problems with it. Of course the images are poor in poor lighting. But in reading some of the other reviews about this one, I'm a bit confused. There is no lens shield, and mine didn't have any...

Pros: Easy on the budget & simple to use
Cons: Yellowish picture , small screen size

I just purchased a logitech express cam for $ 69 at Staple.

I thought now that I have a new P4 1.5 GHZ computer running windows XP the time was right to try out a cam.

I saw this cam at Staples. It was about half the price of...

Pros: It's cheap.
Cons: It has good quality, but you must have sufficient lighting for good picture.

PRICE:About $45.00

VIDEO QUALITY:
Fairly decent, however it's not excellent quality. What do you expect for $45? It has a respectable resolution with many different adjusting selectors in the "Advanced Options" section...

Pros: Easy to setup and use
Cons: Poor picture quality. Bad software. Poor balance. Pricey

I bought a logitech quickcam express and was quite disappointed at the quality of the video. I was able to obtain much sharper (and less snowy) video using some other cheap non-descript webcam. At 320x240 quality is tolerable but the camera performs very...

Pros: Quick to install and use, USB.
Cons: poor photos, minimal focus capability.

It started off three years ago when my best friend wanted to buy me a webcam so we could show each other our cards we made with rubber stamps and we could show off our kids with their Halloween costumes, etc. My husband did not want me to have one, so I...

Pros: It's cheap... IF you make it work
Cons: Has some problems with Windows XP

The Logitech Quickcam Express is a very straightforward webcam. It will do it's work, and it won't offer any other features as taking pictures by pressing a button or integrated memory. It's quality-price relation is very good, and it looks solid.
...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: poor image quality

I won this webcam at a computer show doorprize, for a basic webcam it is ok, the camera has a knurled knob at the bottom that slides into the base for adjusting up and down but it seems never to stay put.I found the only way I could get an halfway decent...

Pros: small size, easy to use, easy installation, long USB cable
Cons: no auto focus

this camera is overall pretty good. it is so easy to use. installation is very easy. all you gott ...

Pros: Cool software package, USB port
Cons: not so good picture, lighting and color

I got this webcam for free from one of my friends who had gotten like 4 for 10 dollars. My initial reaction was "what a cool looking camera" I plugged it in and installed the software that came with the camera and saw a big blur where the picture was...

Pros: Inexpensive
Cons: Poor image quality and bad software

After my sister in Hawaii had her baby we wanted a way to share video so I could see the new baby grow up. I purchased this camera because the price was right but before I really did any research. I knew Logitech made good input devices such as mice and...

Pros: none
Cons: bad picture

I bought this because I desperately wanted a web cam and Logitech products seemed to fill the shelves in the web cam department. I set it up correctly and tried it out. I returned it the next day because I was so disappointed. The picture was very...

Pros: FREE with Verizon DSL package
Cons: Poor image quality. Useless as a camera

This piece of equipment arrived as a FREE GIFT when we signed up for Verizon DSL. At first I hooked it up to my wife's PC. The pictures were grainy and very low quality. I switched it to my PC but there is no improvement. The camera cannot deal with low ...

Pros: nice looking webcam with a "Brand" to back it up
Cons: poor image quality even if the size is 640x480 pixels

This webcam is looks nice and easy to setup and install. The manual and setup program guides you to easily set up the webcam. The software included in the webcam is pretty descent, everything is laid out on the user interface which is very user friendly....

Pros: It takes good pictures if done right
Cons: cord

The camera is not too impressive if you take your first look at it. It has a cord,its small and the picture quality is so-so-. But There is nothing you can do about that. You cant drop the card right? Right. You can't make it bigger right? RIGHT! You...

Pros: Verizon gave it to me for free with my dsl service.
Cons: Very poor picture quality.

This cam is horrible, I didn't have many problems setting it up, that part was easy, however it was after I had it set up that the problems began. The instructions only covered setting it up, and nothing after that. Everything that I was able to do...

Pros: Cheap, Easy to use
Cons: Bad quality, poor lighting situations, no auto-focus

This camera is OKAY. It works, was cheap, mounts on my HP MX70 Monitor's cam mount. It was very easy to install. The pictures are poor and grainy, and lighting has to be PERFECT for it to work the way you want it to. But all in all it's a good deal for the money.

Quick and easy to use.But picture quality is bad. Fuzzy cam.and it freezes up easily. Have had cheaper cams with better pictures.And color is horrible.

its great,cheap and serves it purpose! very affordable! Easy to use,for all family members. directions simple enough, teenagers can take pictures,make home videos. All for under 25.00! How can you go wrong? also inexpensive Christmas gift for a family member. Great communication for far away relatives!!!!

I would never recommend this camera, the picture is too fuzzy. Every light could be on, the sun could be shining through and the picture is still terrible.

I must've gotten a lemon. Dark, fuzzy pictures with all lights on. doesn't twake good quality pictures. Can't really use it as a conference tool, because of the fuzziness.

Called customer support 2 times paid for by me both times and the man said they have problems with it on Windows ME and that I need to take it back to the store for a refund.Don't waste your time with this one.

QUICK CAM IS GREAT. I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN WITH IT. EVERYONE SAYS HOW GOOD I LOOK. I FEEL LIKE A REAL MOVIE STAR. MY FRIENDS LOVE GETTING MY VIDEO E-MAILS. I ACT SILLY, AND MAKE THEM LAUGH. ITS SUCH A GREAT THING. I AM HAVING SUCH A BALL WITH IT. IT CAME WITH OUR COMPUTER. TWO YEARS LATER, I FINALLY DOWNLOADED IT. I COULD KICK MYSELF FOR NOT DOING IT SOONER. JUST LOOK AT ALL THE FUN I MISSED. NOT ANYMORE, I'M IN HEAVEN. THANK YOU! QUICK CAM. CAROL D.

Beware of use with Windows XP. Some versions incompatable, results in "blue screen". Try for software update. Good luck!

You can sit at your pc and adjust the colors until you are blue in the face and you still wont be happy, when you look in the mirror after using this product you will realise how pretty you are, the image is really poor quality and worst of all you cannot use it as a streaming web cam without paying for the Privilege.

This camera is a nice camera if you just want to have the basics. For $30 it does what it is supposed to. It is small and easy to use. Nice for a beginner. I found the picture quality not to my liking. The colors were not true, and this is very light sensitive. I placed a 'back light' behind the camera and still had troubles getting true colors. There are video adjustments you can make, but I find getting the true picture difficult. I would not recomend this camera for someone who wants something more than to be on the web.

Don't bother even buying this thing you will be very displeased. Beware if you want to use it with Windows XP. Make sure you go to logic tech home page and download the new vertion software. DON"T LOAD THE CD it comes with you will be very sorry. If you're running windows 98 V2 I would recomend upgrading the software also. Over all though I wouldn't waste the time look for another alternitive, I am. Hell after seeing the picture my kids don't even want the thing

I wasn't very pleased with quickcam express because the image quality was terrible, it was like a lot of fuzzy dots and it made me look terrible, and I didn't like the way it sat on the stand that it came with, you would have to fidget with it for a long time before it would sit in the stand right. I used to have a quick cam express, but ended up giving it away because it was just terrible.
