Good:
Like the picture quality.
Software has all the zoom functions and controls needed
If using with Vista you need to download the latests drivers (120 MB !)
Comes with a zip case and the camera also closes into the body so the lense is protected when not being used.
Supports higher res video capture than normal for standard web cams (but most web cams are bound by network performance anyway)
Looks cool.
Bad:
USB cable is short (50 cm)
The camera mounting clip and the short cable are really designed for use with a laptop. For this price it would be nice to have a standard screen mount included in the kit with a cable extender.
No easy way to mount the camera on a normal LCD screen you have to just rest it there.
No focus adjustement.

I bought this web cam from currys first and they were selling it for £80. Half price on amazon and an absolute fab deal. This web cam has great precision and is very clear. Photo quality is excellent and it is light sensitive as it takes in as much light to create a flawless picture of you at the other end! Brilliant to use on MSN Messenger. The quality is brilliant! The shape and style is so small and compact and comes with a case too! It has a little clip so that you can clip it on to the top of your lap top or VDU. This is a neat gadget and i recommend everyone to get this model at such a great price that amazon is selling it for.

I've just taken delivery of this webcam, and am seriously impressed. I have tried various webcams in the past, and while most of them captured a reasonable image, they were all seriously below the standard one would really want. The NX-6000 isn't. It captures video at 2MP resolution, which is very high quality, and the image is clear, crisp and well coloured. The still image capture is 7.2MP (assisted by software), and might as well be taken by a proper digital camera. It is genuinely high quality.
The webcam is very easy to install; even with Windows Vista, everything installs itself and you're ready to use it with Windows Live Messenger straight away. It automatically adjusts settings to suit the light, and I couldn't fail to notice the superior quality of the image this resulted in. I turned off the main light in my room to check this feature, and the image adjusted instantly to a properly exposed version. Previous webcams, even those with auto-adjusting exposure, have failed to do this adequately.
I am seriously impressed by this piece of equipment, and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking to spend reasonable money (c.£45) on a webcam. You might just find one that comes close, but I seriously doubt you will find anything better for your money!

Nice little cam, but only focuses up to 5 feet away.
Good little cam; uses a lot of disk space because it installs Live Messenger without asking (and I've uninstalled it without asking and the camera still works). Read more
