Topic: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

OK, I'm not sure, but I think this would be my best bet at getting a new camera at a fairly good price.

I heard the software is not as good as the first, but I'm hoping someone will upload the old install file somewhere for me if I ask pretty please. mini/tongue

So, should I buy it? Or go for something else? I don't really want to pay much more than £40 though.

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

Get it.

it's good. best webcam in the world in my opinion. be careful though, i got the logitech webcam pro 9000 for my birthday, not the logitech quickcam pro 9000 (which i wanted) They are totally different. The webcam doesn't have the effects that the quickcam does.... it's just a webcam mini/madhead  - but still works great with stop animation

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

So, it's the same but different software? If it is, I'll ask BertL for the old software. mini/tongue

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

yeah- ask BertL cuz i don't know what i did. all i did was plug it into my laptop, and downloaded the software. mini/tongue

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

Although I just read that it has Autofocus BUILT IN.


This is a huge problem, because if I can't turn it off, it's pretty much useless for stop motion...

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

That's the exact webcam I bought from Amazon and the quality is brilliant.

My mistake, just checked again and I actually bought the Quickcam, not the webcam. mini/mrgreen
But it's on the same page as the one you're on, for some reason...I'm confuuuused mini/dizzy

No it has manual focus.

I got it from the same place, and its the same cam:

What about the white balance and intergratability with other programs, though?

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

Yeah, Logitech got rid of the white balance feature, which sucks. It turns your frames reddish, and the only way to fix it is to hold a white piece of paper in front of the camera for about five seconds. That's what I had to do for this.

You can change the white balance on Azanzi actually.

I just bought Logitech HD (pro?) c910. I can't compare it to 9000 except the technical details you can read everywhere but it's just nice. It has manual controls (I think same with 9000, same software, I guess) and I colud take good close shots (I thought them to be good, I was using a cam with 640x480 resolution before)... That's what I can say as an amateur...

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

i still have the old software.... i think....

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

I'm gonna get the camera, thanks guys! mini/bigsmile

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

I've got the software with white balance...

wait.... is it a difference on Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 and Logitech Webcam Pro 9000???

Why are you looking at my signature?
Mod edit: Your signature started it.
... Oh yeah.

Re: QCP9000 HD, to buy or not to buy? (Answer quick if possible, thanks!)

yeah- the webcam doesn't have all the cool effects that the quickcam does. but the quickcam is cheaper
