Complementing the style of your Mac computer, the new webcam for Mac computers presents a black-and-silver profile with a prominent built-in silver microphone.the QuickCam Vision Pro records sharp video clips in the 720p high-definition (HD) video format (960-by-720 pixels).VGA-quality video at up to 30 frames per second.In any event, similar to the Logitech Quickcam Orbit AF I reviewed, the new Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro webcam for Mac leverages Logitech's RightLight 2 Technology, which enables the webcam to adjust intelligently in dim or harshly backlighted situations. I just don't get the point of operating system specific webcams. I have plenty of headsets and USB VoIP devices that work on multiple operating systems. Isn't USB supposed to be an industry standard? I should be able to take any USB device and plug it into a Mac, Windows XP, or Vista, and it should have drivers available that just work. What I don't get is why Logitech chooses to make operating system specfic webcams. Logitech's autofocus system compensates for changes in image-edge sharpness and refocuses images in less than three seconds" According to the news, "Focusing is fast and fluid - crisp even in extreme close-ups only 10 cm from the camera lens.
The new Logitech webcam uses a voice coil motor for its autofocus system, instead of a stepper motor.
The new Logitech webcam of course works with iChat and Skype and features a 2-megapixel camera sensor. Logitech today unveiled its first Mac-compatible webcam with premium autofocus technology and Carl Zeiss optics - the Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro webcam for Mac.
