Review on Enhance Your Visual Experience with Logitech C260 Webcam by Micha Kochaski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the quality is good and the price is reasonable.

The first impression was fantastic till the software disc wouldn't play in my computer. From Logitech's official website, I obtained the newest update and promptly installed it. And. the computer began to withdraw into itself, and when accessing the camera (even with third-party programs: sype, QIP, etc.) it fell out with an error in BSOD (blue screen of death), I had to roll back the driver back to the standard one, after rebooting the image returned, however, the Logitech software refuses to work with a "foreign" driver, and therefore we have to be content with a high-quality, but VGA camera for the price of HD. However, the camera's audio and visual quality are outstanding and warrant a perfect score.

Pros
  • High definition! I expected a fantastic movie based on the reviews I read, but what I got was even better. Even with the lights out, Katrinka is legible (enough light was provided by the monitor above the roof, despite its 40" size). The price (although this is relative), I took it for 830, and the sound is decent, even very much. I was outraged to learn that the price of a webcam at a "popular retail chain for everyone" was $690 since I do not believe that any webcam deserves more money.
Cons
  • Of course, it will fit on some monitors and possibly not awful, but the owners of other displays are unlikely to want to modify the monitor just so they can use a webcam, and there is simply no mount. The camera wants to fall over on its side as soon as you set it down on the table because of the thick, heavy, and stiff cable. Adhesive tape fixes the issue, however it won't fix the issue of making the camera horizontal. The lack of horizontal rotation is the real problem.
