Topic: New webcam - what should I get?

I HAVE read the threads about this in the forum, but I couldn't find anything.
I have tried four different webcams, one of them was noisy as a construction area and grainy as a wheat farm.
These webcams were the Logitech E3500, the C910, and the Microsoft Lifecam Cinema and Studio.
So I'm wondering: what should I get? Should I go for the Logitech Webcam pro 9000?

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

Yes, go for the 9000.  I use it, and you can get really great quality with it.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

If you know how to use it right, then go for the Quickcam Pro 9000. What I usually do when setting up a shot is have everything on auto, then put everything on Manual, which keeps the settings where they are, and adjust the focus as needed.

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

I started using Quickcam Pro 9000 after 3 years of using a pretty crappy webcam (couldn't even focus properly and the imaqe quality smelled like monkey poop) and I gotta say that you won't be disappointed if you pick 9000, when I first started using 9000 I felt like I was re-born it was an amazing feeling and I will never ever leave my precious 9000 ever again mini/smile

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

I have been wondering why people are still recommending the 9000 even though the C920 and C910 are out? Not being disrepectful or anything, I really have been wondering for a while.

Go buy the Logitech C920 and shoot for the moon! mini/smile

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

C920 I think doesn't have manual on most things.

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

Thanks for all the replies, I think I'll get the Webcam pro 9000. mini/smile

C905 or C920 are the best I guess. I don't like webcam pro 9000.

It's a classic brickfilmer's decision. It's just is mini/lol  most of my favorite brickfilmers made their films with 9K.

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

Yeah, people achieve great results with it, and many of the best brickfilmers use it.

Oh by the way, I can't get DSLRs or stuff like that. My budget is like an average 12 years-old.

As an owner of the c920 I'd thought I'd mention it has manual everything and is an excellent webcam for brickfilming. It also has a great stand that has a tripod mount and it even quite sturdy balancing on Lego studs

Yeah just because something is newer does not mean it's better.

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

Congrats, that's a great choice. And yeah newer doesn't make it better. Good example? Horror movies. Modern horror flicks are BS mini/bigsmile

Re: New webcam - what should I get?

I have a QC9000. Still awesome. mini/smile
