Topic: Looking to Upgrade To a Cheap Camera

So I am using my Ipod Touch and I decided to upgrade.  I'm still a beginner, but I want a simple camera that is cheap on my high school budget and can go with my windows 2003 computer.  Any suggestions?

What is your budget, exactly? That will really help focus the discussion.

You might have trouble finding a modern webcam that is cheap and compatible with your "Windows 2003" computer. Is your computer running Windows XP operating system, or something else?

I can spend up to $150 dollars.  I have Windows XP, but I do have the option of upgrading to Windows 7.

I recommend the Logitech C920. It's a fantastic webcam and it compatible with a lot of stop-motion software. It's also not too expensive, especially if you get it on eBay.

I second that.
I have the (Slightly older) C910, and it's great.
I can only imagine that the newer model has even more goodness inside.

Like rioforce, I recommend the c920. It's awesome. I still think so, after 3 years of use.

Re: Looking to Upgrade To a Cheap Camera

I barely consider getting a new camera, maybe I should.
Let's hope that I can upgrade my camera to a C920 by November. I've read good things about it in the past five minutes and it suits my needs.
