Weve previously reviewed one of Microsofts entry level webcams VX-1000; lets see what theyve done with the high-end VX-6000. With users looking for more out of their webcams than just a video capture device, lets see if this webcam can deliver.
Face tracking, Sturdy, High quality video, Wide angle lens.
Manual focus, retention clip doesnt secure the camera well.

Webcams are a staple in internet chat, and rightly so. It’s a great way to stay in touch with people who live far away, and see them in person despite the distance. Microsoft has created the LifeCam series of webcams, each having various specs and p...
Easy setup, Works with many messenger programs, Relatively inexpensive, VX-3000...
Mic voice pickup is low, Large call button gets in the way during adjusting, Must use Windows Live with blogging and Call button features, Zooming lessens picture quality significantly, Video and pictures slightly grainy, Clunky face tracking.

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 ($99.95 list) is marketed as a way to capture those "special moments" in life—babys first steps or what-have-you—from afar. It also adds a layer of intimacy to instant-messaging and makes video chatting with frien...
Easy to set up and use. Works with all major instant-messaging clients. Includes pan, tilt, and zoom control.
Doesnt work consistently with every messaging client. Mic volume needs to be turned up high in order to pick up sound.
This is a reasonably priced webcam with some nice features, including face-tracking, but we wish the built-in mic worked better...
