User Reviews about Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 (68A-00001)

I ordered this camera to use with Skype. I loaded the software as instructed and when I went to use it with Skype my family could hear me but not see me. I researched online to find out this camera is not the most compatible with Skype however I found a link recommended to correct the problem. After i uninstalled the software I used this link which went to Microsoft's website and downloaded the drivers. Then I opened Skype and through tools then options I was able to verify the camera was working and set it as my camera through Skype. Now everything is working great.
This is the link where I found the download suggestion:
[...]. -- Skype compatible issue

Camera was really easy to install. Picture quality is ok, haven't tried sound yet. One issue is the delivery. Might've not been handle as well which caused a pixel or two to be broken. -- Good Value Webcam

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 does exactly what it is supposed to. The size is nice as it is very small and does not get in my way. It has a hard time with bright backgrounds, and it also has a hard time when it is dark in the room. It is fine in normal lighting conditions. I now see the importance of HD, as this doesn't have it. I also now see the importance and benefits of having HD, autofocus, wide angle lenses, and digital mic. However, for the price, this LifeCam VX-3000 is fine. I wanted it as an entry-level learners cam, and it has been perfect at doing that! -- Functions as advertised but not exciting.

Everything you need for a basic webcam. Good video, good audio and very easy setup. Plugged it in and 2 minutes later was using it for Skype. Comes with a long cord for easy camera placement and looks stylish too. I would recommend for sure! -- Works great! Easy Install!

It did what I needed it for. The effects are fun to toy around with. The stand effectively sits where you put it. The color and sound are good. -- Good Camera Good Price
