Good Service January 5, 2009 Product arrived on time and was in perfect condition. Seller is reliable and good to do business with.
Logitech STX gets high marks from me December 31, 2008 I've been webcaming for 5 plus years, started with Windows 98SE now using Windows XP desktop--using Skype, MSN Messenger to Windows Live Messenger. My first Logitech webcam was the Pro 4000. About year and a half ago I purchased the STX (because it was on sale) and wanted a backup just in case the Pro 4000 gave up the ghost---this December (2008) had to retire the 4000 and installed the STX. Wished I had installed the STX sooner because the STX has a far better picture/video and sound/audio quality over the 4000.
I've read here, in the user reviews, where some people are having "issues" with their Logitech webcams not working correctly after installation and with Skype, Messenger, Yahoo etc.---maybe I can provide some helpful info to correct those problems.
First, when installing the Logtiech software from either the CD or directly from the Logitech website---if it asks you if you want or has a checkmark in "Logitech Desktop Messenger" say NO or UNCHECK it (if you find that it was installed then un-install/remove Logitech Desktop Messenger) there is "something wrong within it" which will cause your webcam not to perform correctly---I discovered this while doing some research on the Logitech forums.
Secondly, after the installation, when you are done selecting your webcam's video/audio settings to your liking---and you have any of the "video chatting" programs (Skype, Windows Live Messenger, AOL, Yahoo etc.) then go to each individually and do the webcam settings (audio/video) to make sure audio/video is working correctly and that that program RECOGNIZES your webcam---do this BEFORE making your first "video or audio chat".
Hope these helpful hints help those who maybe having problems.
Decent for the price December 20, 2008 The camera works as advertised, definitely. I'm not sure if this one issue is because of my underpowered computer or the software, but there seems to be a significant delay in the action and getting it on the screen, so I get thrown off by the lack of sync. It's definitely a great camera though. =)
Excellent December 14, 2008 Excellent product. We bought 5 in total to get the entire family connected for a weekly meeting. Everything works perfectly. I will always put logitech on top of the list when it comes to our communication needs.
I am in fear everytime I use this product. December 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Every time I use this webcame and mike, I get negative feedback from by contact, saying such things as "you should get your money back". Biggest problem is audio connection. It's like being in a bad zone with a mobile phone. It's in and out, even when trying to tell the other party it works only one speaker at a time. I have a built in webcam on my laptop (different computer), and have no problems with my same contacts using it. I have tried rebooting. It could be my home computer, but I have no reason to suspect it.
