I am about to buy a webcam but I am totally not aware what I should be looking for. Can annybody recommend me some brands and also what specs of the webcam should be looking for. I plan to spend around 30-40 bucks. Dont know if its enought to get a descent webcam ... Also does USB 2.0 capability add to the quality of the image I can get ??
Any help appreciated ..
Well I have a Logitech Pro 4000, but it cost 100 bucks when I bought it....its decent. Takes SHITY pictures and shity videos...I dont like them much at all.
Damn if thats the one amogst the best and it does everything shitty ?? then for 34-40 bucks ...what am I buying then :) ?? :((
By a $10 one, for what you use it for . Spend the money on a good digital camera. ;)

How much can webcams actually record?
Well, dont u see the amateur porns are shot with webcams and some of them are pretty good. So i thought I can get me one to do my own :)
I've seen most done with camcorders. :smilie4:Quote:

Anyway to go back to my question. Can anyone give me advice for a webcam? Thus far havent gotten many recommendations..
anybody?
thats a sick way to use a webcam :lol:
get a webcam and open it up and take the main lens out and it will be even tinyier :01:
look for a camera with a CCD (charged coupled device) image sensor like all your camcorders have.
the other type is the CMOS (chrome, metal-oxide, semiconductor) sensor.
CMOS sensors usually comes in cheaper cameras ($40-50 or less).
A single CCD camera usually cost more but deals can be found. shop around.
the best would be a 3 CCD camera, but those cost thousands of dollars.
IMO the difference in quality between CCD and CMOS sensors is quite noticeable.

What do u say -- do u think its good??
I have one of those. My dad got it free after upgrading to AOL BB. It's not bad but i only use it for MSN so im not sure about video recording. :)
Well, can I assume that whatever the quality u get for video chat in MSN, thats the quality of video recording Im gonna get?? Or if you, by any chance, have a second could you just try it so you can tell me for sure ...Quote:

For porn!
there are a few variables other then the camera in determining the quality of your video when recording, chatting etc.
speed of your connection, your ISP, whomever you're connecting to not to mention the various software settings and hardware all will affect the quality when chatting.
if you're going to record video, you can affect quality by varying the amount of compression, if at all.
there is much more that can be said but the bottom line is you're going to have to try things and see what works best for you.
peace,
p.s, toy with your lighting as well
I have an intel pocket pc camera.. image below:
http://www.intel.com/pccamera/pix/ts...cket_photo.jpg
This mofo has held up to 150 Nice looking images that have the same size as the ones you take with a normal camera when you output them onto your computer.
The software/usb connected video recording quality has nice quality too.
The only problem is I got mine off Sams.com when it was in overstock for a price of $30. The damn camera is much harder to find now and normally costs atleast $70! Holy moly it's gone up in price! Strange when computer related costs go "UP".
check around though, might find a sucker still sellin em for $30-40.
is this like an applicattion form for prison or something? :helpsmile:Quote:

That's probably because the product is no longer being manufactured by Intel. :(Quote:

Wow, I was looking around and one of these is considered very good:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products...,CONTENTID=5042
And it cost around $80. Checked at ebay and those babies -- u can get them for like 35, which is a very good price and its the amount of money I intend to spend. So rather than buying this :

off of newegg. Id be better off shooting for the 4000 pro on ebay...
cheers,
Kurt.
P.S. -- the comment about prison application -- who said i am going to distribute this or its gonna be some sick child porn... I want to make my own porn for myself. Just for fun ...
:lol: i suppose thats ok then. i thoughtt you were gonna sell it
