## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: 5 stars doesn't do it justice. - Next day delivery which was superb as it came one day early. Well done desertcart. The camera; Very well made in aluminium with a glass lens. I plugged it into USB 3 ( it is backwards compatible so it will work with USB 2) and it was recognised immediately and found the drivers from Microsoft and loaded them. I am running this on a win 7 64 bit, 3.4 Gig CPU and 8 Gig ram. It works flawlessly at HD 720 providing your graphics card and monitor are compatible. If you can't get HD 720 then it's likely your graphics don't support it. It doesn't have an on off switch so to speak, however I have it set to let software take control of it. This means when I'm not using it, I close skype and the camera shuts off. I also use a language program online and sometimes I have to speak the word, when the program asks the word the camera comes on (mic only), I speak the word and it goes off again when I've finished speaking. I don't have to touch it and it is a bonus as it isn't on all the time. I am in awe at the quality of this camera, the pic quality and the overall build of it. The mic is superb, but remember to set it up with your computer sound mic settings to get the best from it. The mount is a rubbery compound and you just bend it round to fit your monitor, and it stays put (normal use, maybe not frantic gaming but a bit of blue-tac will solve that lol). They are a steal at this price, normally going for nearly twice the price, even on the notorious bidding site we all know and love/hate. I highly recommend this and if problems arise, short of it being faulty, check your computer spec's and set it up accordingly.
Review: DO NOT BUY FOR WINDOWS 10 OR 11!!!! - I'm the IT manager at a med-sized org, so I promise I'm not just missing a trick here! Long story short: This is a good device for Windows 7 or earlier, and would likely work perfectly for a PC that was upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. If you've got a computer that was bought new in Windows 10 or 11, don't buy this device! (I also couldn't get it to work on 2 different Mac devices; I gave up after 10 minutes so it may work with a bit more fiddling, but not straight away.) Full story: My manager had this model and it looked good, which is why I purchased it for a project I was heading up. When tested on an old Windows 10 laptop, it worked fine - the quality was above average, easy plug-and-play. I was very happy! So we purchased the new PC it was going to be attached to, but found a serious problem - and after a LOT of troubleshooting (including complete OS reinstalls) we found the issue: The new more-generic drivers that are in-built with Windows 10 (and 11) don't support this device correctly. The quality is dramatically lowered, and the auto-focus can't settle, meaning it refocuses every 5-10 seconds without fail. Worse still, the specific drivers for this device have stopped being updated - me nor 3 others could get the Windows 7 drivers to function properly (unsurprisingly), and as the others are in-built we couldn't overwrite them easily. It also used to come with a small piece of control software, but same story here. The old laptop, however, was upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 - we discovered it still had the appropriate drivers running, which is why it worked so perfectly! Really unfortunate coincidence for how much time it took. The solution for our new device was to run OBS and use its Virtual Camera feature to control the webcam, so we could access and control the camera settings to turn off the auto-focus, so it stopped doing the nauseating phasing. 4 stars because it does work this way, and does good-enough a job. But it's a really unnecessary additional step to train users up in. Hope this helped someone!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it work with windows 8.1?**
A: Yes it works with Windows 8.1. It does not matter if its the Windows 8.1 update first, then apply Skype or the other way around. There maybe an update to SKYPE so try this to make sure of this. Please recall that when you buy the webcam you buy it for others to view you and the other persons camera is for your viewing. Can i add that if you have a widescreen monitor, the camera sits securely on top of the monitor. And if you wish some privacy, just turn the camera body away from facing you.

**Q: How long is the cable for this?**
A: Just over 1.5 Mtrs. I have 2 of these webcams in use and have found them excellent - Hope this helpsRegards

**Q: Mac compatible?**
A: Yes it works with my new brand new Mac Mini (2018 model) using OS X Mojave.  Just fitted it, so still trying it out but seems to work OK out of the box

**Q: Is the sound quality good**
A: Yes, very good for communication, I use it mostly as a mic.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reduction in cost, quality web camera that works with Windows 10
*by A***C on 4 January 2014*

* Physical The device is a circular tube of the dimensions of a bigger cotton reel. It feels to the touch well-made. When it is used the webcam can become warm to the touch. * Installation If you require guidence, for setting this up, i suggest YouTube. Eventually, you will find a useful video to look into. This is done by downloading and installing the webcam driver software first and then plug - and -play the camera into a convenient USB 2.0 and above the port. * How it performs When the device is set up properly and working with services such as SKYPE or ZOOM, the picture I am told by others who view my connection, proves to be very detailed, bright, and attractively clear with fluid motion and no trace of blocking. The microphone, I am told by others I have a video called, is very clear and free from distortion. This is helped by a BB connection of 68 Meg / Second. * Changing camera settings There are two ways to access the settings to control this camera. The first is to enter the search bar on the bottom left of the desktop screen with 'Microsoft camera', and press return to get the panel with basic settings. Select 'pro options' to get most of the setting control. The second method is when online and running the Zoom application. Select your small camera video image with your mouse, left-click to select it, and then right-click to access the options it holds. There are more options here available than in the previous way. I had issues with the Zoom image temperature being red-shifted. I selected a change in the video setting and left Zoom and then reentered Zoom to apply these changes. It worked. A Zoom member had difficulties with his online resources, I am able to reduce the data settings of my camera to help the user to see my connection. If these two methods cannot fix your problem, such as extreme red-shifted colour balance, may I suggest the free utility OBS Studio? The videos to use this is on Youtube and it's a free application. Choose the Windows version. Look at the YouTube videos as to how to use it. It helped me. Just a tip. Some bulbs using folded tubular construction can take time to reach their designed operating light output. If you give the lights illuminating your computer 20 minutes or so, the issue can clear itself and the colour balance can be restored. This view of its fine performance is in part due to my ISP download speed of 58 Meg / Sec, including a NordVPN. * Summary Overall, I rate this webcam device. This device works with a desktop of Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit. And is well worth the money. In closing the device works very well and I am pleased I bought this webcam from Amazon.co.uk. If you're concerned with remote viewing through your webcam, might I suggest you rotate the camera and turn it away from viewing you when it's not using it? It's likely your antivirus utility - such as AVG - will let you know if the camera is being used for video or sound by those you've not initiated the connection. This will protect your video and sound connection if it's being hacked by scammers. * As of 09 March 2024 This is just a quick update that this device seems to be still working well. I join a Zoom group for around 90 minutes most Mondays. Its video and audio are still working as designed. The colour balance can still be off, but trying again at a later date is acceptable. The colour temperature of these tubular lights can take 20 minutes to return to their designed brightness and related colour temperature. * As of 11 June 2024 My LifeCam Cinema HD device has received and benefitted from a recent driver update. The image is sharper. The contrast is better too. This driver update, just installed, is from 2016! So why has it been hidden away all this time to date, I do not know why. * As of 30 May 2025 Zoom issues new applications to handle its traffic every few weeks. Sorry if it's obvious. But I didn't know this until a few months ago. To do this, make yourself an account with Zoom. Then log in. Find the correct Zoom for your equipment. Mine is 64-bit for Windows 10. Download it. Go to your Downloads folder and do a scan with your antivirus of this file. Then click on it. It will initiate. It waits a few minutes until your camera shows up in a panel on your monitor. It's good to test that both your camera vision and sound are working, then log in to your Zoom meeting and your chat. The latest Zoom update -17 March 2026- has made the connection much faster.
