Logitech Quickcam Communicate stx

Mac users needn’t despair – this great value camera has both PC and Mac drivers included, making this the only camera reviewed that’s compatible with Macs straight out of the box.

It comes with two clip-on stands, one for hanging on a monitor, the other for placing on a flat surface. There’s a microphone built into the unit or, if you prefer better sound quality and don’t mind plugging in, there’s also a headset and microphone combo that connects to your soundcard.

It’s a slightly older model than the other Logitech device on review here, so doesn’t come with the fancy face-decorating software, though it’s still pre-equipped with software to do slightly more useful tasks, such as work with your instant messenger or record words of wisdom for your video blog or YouTube moment.
