good webcam

its almost like being there! 
2007-03-20
i use this to talk with my granddaughter. although the resolution is not perfect my granddaughter has been able to recognize me since she was 12 months old. It is so wonderful to be able to see her smiles and laughter and we are able to sing songs together and we can show each other some of our favorite things even though we are hundreds of miles apart. When i go to visit there is no "getting to know you time" as she knows me via the internet and runs into my arms. I recommend this product to anyone who wants to keep in touch with someone over the miles.
No Windows Vista Driver Planned 
2007-03-08
I bought this about 6 months ago. Now that I have installed Windows Vista on my computer, this webcam is a paperweight. Creative has decided NOT to provide a Windows Vista driver for this webcam. DO NOT BUY this if you plan to upgrade to Windows Vista.
Creative Labs Web cam 
2007-02-28
I had absolutely no problem with this installation. I am using Windows XP and it was easy to set up.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT 
2007-02-10
We bought two Creative Labs WebCams and we could not get the sound to work on either one. (one was for grandma). We worked with Creative Labs to try to get it resolved and never could get the sound to work at all. By the time we got done working with Creative Labs, we passed the return time with Amazon, and Creative Labs would do NOTHING to help us. Now we are stuck with two useless web cams..... TERRIBLE customer service. What should have been a wonderful Christmas gift turned out to be a pain in the you know what all around. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
Great Web Cam 
2008-06-24
This may not be one of the best Web Cams available, but for the price it is a very good camera. Quality is great. If you have a high speed connection then you will enjoy using this camera. I have this one and I also upgraded and purchased the Creative Notebook Pro.
I am happy with both the products. Will definitely buy again.
Poor image quality, poor design 
2008-05-28
I know, this is a cheaper camera. We're all trying to save these days. Still... this one is really bad.
The design: cheapy. Sorry, I couldn't come up with another word for it.
When my daughter went up to adjust it on the laptop, the base broke like it was made of sugar.
The video quality is really poor - both pixelized and choppy. So you basically can't use it other than as a talking head, and even then, IF you're not moving your head, your mouth, or breathing, then you *may* get a recognizable image...
For this price range, it's not the worse, but frankly, it's not doing very much for you. For $39.99, you can get an IPEVO POV webcam, that'll have much higher resolution, better frames per seconds (30fps, standard on all chat services), solid design so you aren't afraid it'll fall apart within 1 week, and you can hand it off to your kids to show grandma the dog without fearing for your $30...
Overall, very disappointing, even for that price.
sucks 
2008-02-08
poor image quality. cant see anything unless it is daylight, or you have ten lights on. its stand is akward and doesnt really fit on anything, and the cord is a little too short.
VF0050 Vista driver ! It works 
2007-07-10
I was also about to give up trying to find a Vista driver for this great webcam, when I finally tried out the default Xp driver from the creative website.
After installing the driver, the last screen got stuck. I then logged out, and after logon, plugged the Webcam just to check, and ... it detected it correctly!
Works with MSN and Skype as it did running Xp !
Not Vista Compatible 
2007-07-04
I really liked this webcam when I had XP on my desktop. Sadly, Creative has decided not to develop drivers to enable Vista compatibility, and believe me, this camera wont run on Vista. Too bad they decided to go the route of forcing people to buy a new camera (hopefully theirs). I wont be one of them.
