User Reviews about Microsoft LifeCam Show (Black)

This webcamera was really good! I was unsure at first but when i hooked it up, it looked great! The people that I skyped with said that the picture quality was super good! I would definitely recommend this product! -- awesome

First of all, i would like to applaud Microsoft for their first rate packaging.

The price is it's obvious drawback to buying this webcam, but since you can get it on sale on here, it's no big deal: you could probably get a better camera with 80 dollars or so if bought at retail price...

-Picture quality is better than most webcams and definitely better than almost all built in webcams.
-There are a lot of effects that come with the software which can be fun and easy to use.
-Slim and sleek design; also comes with a handy case to hold the webcam in for carrying to places.


The only major problem with this is only the frame-rate which i believe only goes to 15. It's not that much of a problem though, and i believe i am picky about frame rate.

Overall, i think this is a great webcam to buy, but Microsoft could've done better for the price. -- Good webcam overall

Just bought this to use on a 2 year old laptop running Vista. I wanted to use it with Skype, so I installed the latest version. The camera itself worked okay, but after 15 - 30 sec of a video call on Skype, the image would freeze. Tried installing/restarting everything again, and still no luck, so it has gone back.

The installation was okay, although as people have said you can just plug it in and it seems to also work. Both ways ended up freezing Skype for me though.

I really liked the magnetic part of the camera, being able to pull it off the stand or hook it up to the computer quickly and take it off quickly would have been quite nice. -- Okay, but didn't work with my Skype

The reason I say defect is because resolution was great, sound was great, camera quality suck. Grays were black, Reds were light Pink..it was all bad. Lights were coming in and out and I'm black but i had Micheal Jackson's complexion in this camera.

I went into the settings, could only change some settings, cant put the settings on auto. Camera still did not reproduce colors great. it wasn't expectable. I'm sending it back.

Only reason i gave it 3 stars is because I figured it was a good camera just that mines was defected but I recently purchased a Microsoft LifeCam Cinema to replace it. -- I got a defected camera
