Northern,
usually a case of you pays your money ......
however 'google' Logitech as they have a range, including HD ones, that cover most price ranges
We have spent ages looking for a decent one and tbh the results are disappointing
Web cams of the type we are looking for have very limited range - 2/3m only and then are easily disrupted by objects in between them and the PC/receiver. - so what's the point of them when we can operate a conventional webcam on an extension lead up to 4m from the PC.
The others are all surveilance type cams for use with CCTV systems and as such cost the earth
There is definitely a gap in the market here for a decent webcam that can be independently powered and linked to a PC within say 20/50m and shouldn't cost more than £30/£50.
Perhaps the Geeky chaps that we are told will inherit the Earth should leap up and get cracking. We think there is real money to be made for the 1st one on the market with a wireless webcam that is portable, cheap and reliable.
I have an IP cam which can be viewed from any where in the world if you have the IP address,it cost roughly about £120 and can also be viewed on my Iphone4 with a good wifi connection from anywhere too.
It connects to my router or indeed any router if configured properly and works thro the router wifi.
The quality is at a par with most hd web cams I would say.
Hi guys. If u have an android phone, u can use it as a wireless cam for the chatrooms by using an app called droidcam. Enables u to cam from anywhere within your wireless network. It needs to be installed on your phone and there is also a small program to install on your pc.
This may be tricky for a novice to set up but just follow the droidcam instructions and u should be fine. Google is your friend!
