kalyway Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 hmm. the 360 web cams here are pretty expensive. actually, i don't really care about the brand anymore, i just want one supported by os x and has drivers, which i can also use macam with. a cheap one.

kalyway Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 hmm... how about the Xbox Live Vision? since tiger 10.4.9 drivers for vision have been supported. no need for macam. but i heard eyetoys have a VERY good picture quality, so good that it is compared to high-quality pc webcams.. is that true? and how about the xbox live vision?

Donw35 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Got to say, the XBOX live cam is worth the money, plug in to Leopard and works with all apps, even works with Linux. Yeah, its more money but isn't worth it to just plug it in and not have to fool around with the cam working some times and not others, having to plug and unplug it when you want to use it.. I say buy it and have a great cam for any os....

kalyway Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 I guess I'll go for the Xbox Live Webcam. A good description by don helped me decide But it still depends... how much do the XBL Webcam/EyeToy cost. I also have an Xbox 360, so the XBL Webcam can help me there too...
