I'm wondering if I should get the Logitech HD Webcam C510;
does it have manual focus and can take good close ups?
I need advice, as this camera is in my price range.:|
Get the Logitech C920.
@Briks Thanks for the links; but I've seen those already. But I'll look on Logitech's website again.(Strange how they dont sell their own product.)
@KeeponBrickin Not too out of range; I'll see if I could stretch my budget a bit...
Thanks, guys!
If you can't afford the c920, then the c910 is a great alternative. The price has dropped to much lower than what it was a year ago, and the lens produces crystal-clear images; great for a webcam. In my personal opinion its quality is better than the renowned QC Pro 9000, and can film up to 1080p and take 10MP pictures. Great webcam for the price.
EDIT: Oh, and the c510 is most likely discontinued right now which is why you may not be able to find it on Logitech's website. That being said, here's a review on their site: http://reviews.logitech.com/7061/6817/l … eviews.htm
I use a Webcam Pro 9000, and it is great too. You can't get it from Logitech's website anymore, but I bought it from a web store who sold it for a good price.
I have tried the C910 and the 9000, and I prefer the 9000 because it's MUCH easier to make it stand still.
I suppose that's true. The new c920 is more flat and compatible with tripods.
Hmm...considering... thanks for the tips.:D
Digging up an old thread....
Can you manually control the c920 (on Windows, you MacHeads! 
)
I might be getting it; saved up for it.
Yes indeed! All of the c920's functions can be set to manual on windows via the included software. 
Absolutely! It comes with a controller similar to that of the other Logitech webcams, giving manual control over everything. It works nicely with Windows, and can be used for different pieces of software (I use Heliumfrog). Glad to here you might get it...it's awesome for brickfilming in most ways.
