Logitech quickcam webcam pro#
Note that the Quickcam Pro has a wider angle than the iSight. The lighting conditions were interesting with a window in the front and lights in the background. The autofocus mostly works for both webcams. I moved the bug from a 3 feet to a couple of inches from the lens so that you can see the differences. Here are a few snapshots taken simultaneously by both webcam. It doesn’t happen often, but it does happen.
It works OK, but induces changes in color tones, sometimes several times a second, which leads to a slightly blinking image that can be annoying. While using the webcam, you might be prompted by Logitech’s software to enable “RightLight”, which is their automatic light settings adjustment algorithm. The image quality is much better than my first-generation Apple iSight. The webcam’s image quality is very good (for a webcam).It’s the best that I have seen, to be honest. Some might complain about the absence of a lens lid, but I just turn the camera towards the ceiling when I don’t want to have the lens pointing at me all the time. The good thing is that it does not need any adhesive to be mounted and is compatible with most monitors. It does not look cheap, but the aluminum body of the iSight is more fashionable, in my opinion.
The Quickcam has a sleek design with a black and shiny surface. We will put these features to the test and as an Apple iSight (1st generation) user, I will tell you how the Quickcam Pro 9000 compares to it.

Is the Quickcam Pro 9000 as good as it sounds? And most importantly, how does it stack up against Logitech’s marketing pitch? Read the full reviewto see if the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 is for you. Equipped with a Carl Zeiss optic (which also sells optics to Sony and Nokia, among others), this webcam has a very good image quality – much better in fact than the Quickcam Pro 4000, the Logitech webcam that I owned before I switched to the Apple iSight.
As we said before, it’s been a while since we got excited by a webcam, but a demo of the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 has caught our attention.
