Webcam - live video resolution? kevinti Mar 24th, 07, 12:33 PM #1 (permalink)
Guys,

I'm buying a webcam. 2 questions in my head:

1. Is live video of 640x480 is good and clear and fast(in term of fps) enough for normal chit chating? (Im on SH6000 broadband).

2. If so, or if no, what is the minumum live video resolution and brand of webcam is recomanded?

I hope for your quick advices.

Thank in advance!

Cheers!
Kevin

Hi guys,

Thanks a lot for your advices. Well, my budget is $100, so I think video of at least 640x480 is the minimum for clear video.

Ok, I will go check them out during next week..!

Thanks again! & Happy Weekend
