Microsoft LifeCam Studio

Microsoft's latest webcam, the LifeCam Studio ($99.99 list), offers quality video recording and Internet video chats at a reasonable price. It's a Best Buy exclusive, available now at BestBuy.com and in Best Buy retail stores in October. The LifeCam Studio features a 1080p-capable sensor, an improved design, a flexible mount, and a steady picture that looks natural in a variety of environments. There are still a few hidden gotchas, but the LifeCam Studio's improvements are enough to steal our Editors' Choice award from the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 ($99.99, ). Like the prior, almost-all-black Microsoft LifeCam Cinema ($79.95, ), the LifeCam Studio is a beauty. It measures 4.5 by 1.6 by 2.4 inches (HWD), and is a mix of silver and black aluminum, with a sleek, cannon-shaped design. A high-precision glass element lens covers a new 1080p-capable, auto-focus sensor. It brings in more light than the prior model and is optimized for working well in lower-light environments. Microsoft said the goal was for users to avoid having to crank the lights for video chats. In addition, a small cap extends out from over the sensor; this way straight overhead light doesn't hit the sensor and compromise the image.

Product Survey: Webcams

The LifeCam is the latest Microsoft baby. At first sight, it looks pretty attractive and has a mouthwatering spec. Note the video record function at 720 pixels with autofocus. Like the VX-5000, this webcam is mounted on a flexible rubber fixture that gives it easy purchase on all types of LCD screen or CRT or simply your desk. Like previous cameras in the range, the LifeCam Cinema gives a very good image in full daylight. The fluidity of images and colour management are very impressive indeed. They are also nice and sharp. You get the face in full detail! It doesn't however perform as well in a dark room. Management of low lighting is not its strength. It tends to overexpose which erases most of the detail. Best to have a lamp to hand if you don't want to disappoint anyone trying to make you out. The LifeCam Cinema's microphone disappointed us somewhat in comparison to what you usually get from Microsoft. We much prefer the audio quality of previous versions. During the test, we noted that it wasn't sensitive enough. We put the volume right up in the hope of hearing better and although the problem was resolved, doing this did cause a few problems. As you can hear in the video below, the microphone is subject to surrounding sounds, like those coming from the computer for example.
