    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.

    Very good camera5
    This is my first webcam, I bought it to use with Skype.

    Pros:
    1. Quite a sensitive microphone (even when I spoke quietly, the other party could hear me, although maybe Windows Vista sound settings helped)
    2. It adjusts to the lighting, even if the light is not very good, color distortion is not too big.
    3. Can be positioned easily on top of an LCD monitor
    4. Turns and swivels in any direction

    Cons:
    1. Manual focus
    2. Face tracking tends to zoom in and out even if you don't move (not a big con since I don't use it).
    3. Packaging is not very environmentally friendly as the small camera comes in a large box with a lot of extra cardboard padding.

    My Review3
    The Camera works good for a webcam at home or office. You can even use it for security

    Not so impressed...3
    I have used this webcam about four times and each time, there have been glitches, the picture is fuzzy, etc. I think part of this may be due to the internet connection, but I think the camera is partially to blame. If I had this to do over, I would probably buy a nicer model.
