Click Image to Enlarge Logitech QuickCam Pro (white ring), workbench Chuck's. Purchased 1998, $130

One of Logitech's early webcams, this is a fairly good first time camera if you already have one or are given one by a friend. It is no longer available unless you see one at a yard sale. I would not pay more than $2 for one though. The newer $35 cameras are much better.

It has a fairly good image in good lighting as long as you stick with the 320x240 image size. In low light it tends to introduce colored pixels in areas across the screen.

Important note: The USB version of this camera is only compatible with Windows 95 and 98. It will not work under Windows 2000 or XP.
