Te long, sleek, rectangular Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 shoots in full 1080p high def at 30 frames per second and captures 10-megapixel still photos with its Zeiss optics lens.
Te C910 has a depth of less than an inch. Te unit fits snugly on the top or side of your monitor, and the attached adjustable arm keeps it nicely in place. if your PC has video-call sofware (such as skype or Logitech Vid) already installed on it, the camera is ready to go as soon as you plug it in via its attached usb cable.
The Webcam works nicely with the new Logitech Vid HD service, and it’s skype-certified, too. Vid HD is more intuitive to use than skype, with larger video boxes so you can see your chat partner better. Snap a portrait of yourself, search for friends, click the portrait icon of the person you want to converse with, and begin chatting.
For HD video chat, you’ll need an internet connection with an upload speed of at least 1 mbps. Minimum requirements for 720p HD video calling and 1080p full HD video recording are Windows XP, a 2.4GHz intel Core 2 Duo CPu, 2Gb of RAM, 200Mb of hard-drive space, and a screen resolution of 1280 by 720.
Te Logitech Webcam’s on-screen controls made it easy to zoom in and out and then pan in any direction to focus on specific objects. In my tests, the camera captured motion best when it was zoomed all the way out. Te dual microphones in the C910 picked up voices and other sounds flawlessly.
Te C910 also lets you easily upload video to YouTube and Facebook. Te Webcam comes with Magix photo and video-editing tools, so once you shoot a video blog, a mini movie, or a message for a friend, you can spruce it up a bit before uploading.
