  • Summary: Plug & Play with Mac Snow Leopard, High Quality Webcam
  • Comment: I needed a good camera to use with Skype for my Mac Mini OS 10.6.3. There were few for Mac and I wanted a good one so went with the new Logitech Pro (bought at end of June 2010). I plugged it into the usb port, opened up Skype and there I was looking at myself. It works with any program for which you need a webcam. The picture is fantastic and it seems to track me very well if I gesture or move. It also picks up your voice so you do not need a headset.

  • Summary: Nice but...
  • Comment: I was shocked to discover that iMovie does not support this camera. To use it, you need to buy QuickTime Pro for $29.00 and import your video into iMovie for editing, which is a bit of a drag. That said, it is much better than the Mac camera in my MacBook Pro which is decent, but this camera blows it away.

  • Summary: Happy Mac user
  • Comment: This review is for Intel based Mac OS 10 user.

    I use UVC for easy installation. So, my installation is simply easy plug-n-play. No installation of software or driver or whatsoever. I also use my headset for privacy. However form time to time I may use the mic that comes with this webcam, and I am still happy about the sound quality. According to my im partners, they rarely can tell the difference. I don't use auto focus feature nor movie feature, so I cannot provide info about those aspects for you. The picture quality is super. That is the main reason I bought this one, even though it is a second hand. I had several others in the past, and I had enough of the picture quality. I, myself, is also an amateur photographer. So I know a thing or two about what is the most important things when it comes to taking pictures/video. It is always lens, lens, and something else. To be short, the Carl Zeiss len on this webcam makes all the HUGE difference. You won't regret your investment on this one.

  • Summary: The best webcam for Mac
  • Comment: Although I don't give it a full 5-star rating, this is a great web camera. It's many times as sharp as my old iSight, and has a far greater dynamic range (handles bright and dark at the same time). The autofocus is great and picture is very sharp, though I don't think it's fully HD. Also it works great in low level room lighting.
    Yes, I would buy it again! There is nothing better on the market.

    Only bad experience is it frequently crashes if used with iGlasses utility (allows flip/rotate/exposure control/digital zoom) , but this is not Logitech's fault. Otherwise it is rock-steady.

    What needs improvement: the stand/clamp is clumsy...give me a screw-mount option. Also, how about some Mac software to equal what you (Logitech) offer for PC's to replace iGlasses?

    Computer: PowerMacG5 dual 2.5GHz PPC, 5GB RAM.
    Software: iChat 4.0.9 (622)
    Webcam driver: NONE (uses Mac built-in USB drivers) It's literally plug and play.
    Purchased webcam May 2010

  • Summary: Easy to Use
  • Comment: I'd purchased this for my 66 year old mother in-law, who's not very technology savy, and she was able to install it herself. She's signed up on Skype and we've been video chatting ever since.
