 Very good, though pricey, webcam October 7, 2008
Richard Smiley (Kokomo, IN USA)
System used: 2.8 GHz Mac Pro (Note that this is a high-end system.)
Excellent iChat video (640x480, according to the documentation):
Excellent exposure, excellent autofocus
With QuickTime Pro 7, gives four choices of input format, listed as:
Good (MPEG-4) [640x480, presumably 30 fps]
Better (H.264) [320x240, presumably 30 fps]
Best (H.264) [640x480, 30 fps]
Device Native [1600x1200, 5 fps]
The slow frame rate at maximum resolution was a disappointment to me. I cannot recommend video at that slow a frame rate, though still photographs should be fine. (Apparently, higher resolutions than 640x480 combined with frame rates of 30 fps are very expensive.)
 A cheaper alternative is available October 4, 2008
Tanuki (San Jose, CA)
A much cheaper cam is the Gear Head WC830I. It also plugs into the USB port and just works. The Logitech cam possibly might have some superior qualities, but the Gear Head is just fine for me.
 Doesn't work on my G5. October 2, 2008

Must be an incompatibility somewhere (?) but I get a lag between the video and the sound. It gets worse by increments until at about a 60-seconds lag, the thing's completely unusable. I can leave the office, cross the road and I'm still "live" in the iChat window on my other computer when I get home. Surreal.
Might be because of my non-Intel 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, but the specs are well above the minimum requirements on the box. No thanks to Logitech.
I don't have the problem with an old Apple i-sight camera on the same machine, so it's not the line or my hardware.
Logitech's technical support is rubbish, so the camera's going back.
 Fabulous Products - Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac September 29, 2008

I have purchased Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac from here, and I find this product is easy to use and with high image quality!
If you have your ibook without Camera, I suggest you to buy this one! You will never regret!!
Excellent except for price. September 25, 2008
Tarun Chachra (Hillsborough, NJ USA)
Logitech has done it again.
Excellent camera, MAC compatible, excellent quality.
My only reason for 4 out of 5 stars - Price.....
I have done reviews on the younger brother to this one...so repeating my self is not necessary. I can guarantee you a pleasant video experience w this camera... My kids use it to do simple videos on a MAC and I can say it works GREAT.
Also to be noted and to give CREDIT to Logitech - this thing works great in low light environments...it doesnt make everything dark. One bulb and you are set to go with great images..... I have done it ... I stand by it...and I love it.
Now if we could get it more affordable for the masses - we would have a 5/5 winner.
