Question by Joe Bloggs: can someone recommend a good quality webcam for video conferencing purposes – and explain why it’s better?
better than other brands & models of camera please?
I’m a bit out of the loop where web cams are concerned, so some advice would be appreciated.
Also, I may make an occasional home video with it for youtube, so it needs to be reasonable quality. I’m currently using an old fashioned Intel web cam from the mid 90s.

I would recommend Logitech Webcam Pro 9000
– Ultra-smooth AutoFocus with Carl Zeiss lens system for sharper, fluid video
– HD video recording and 2-megapixel sensor capture detailed 16 x 9 widescreen videos and up to 8-megapixel photos
– RightLight2 Technology adjusts brightness for perfect images, even in dim light
– Premium built-in microphone with RightSound Technology for crystal-clear conversations

It sounds like your best bet is to read the guide to webcams (link below) and make the selection that works best for you. The guide describes the features and specifications to look for in a webcam, and recommends specific models with built-in mics starting under $25.
