Webcam

[dbgtz]

Looking for a new webcam, preferably HD but I can only find one of those. So +rep to whoever finds one. Preferably £40 or less but I could probs scrape more :L

You wanna be a bit weary with cheaper HD Webcams. The more expensive ones process the images in the actual webcam but I believe the cheaper ones require your computer to do it, taking up a large proportion of your CPU. Make sure you definitely meet the recommended specs.

is that any good, can anyone tell?

Get a Microsoft one, Microsoft hardware is always good :) I just bought a VX-1000 (I think?) for £11 on play.com and its been really good, nice framerate and all that jazz. Only VGA quality though, go for a higher end Microsoft one if you have the money.

I have an Advent 3.0 MP webcam, it's not HD but not bad for the price.
