Recommendation for Webcam

Can anyone recommend any good webcams to use.
Ive been looking at the iSight but i'm not 100% sure at the moment on buying this.
What webcams do other people use for talking with friends online?
Cheers.
John.

While there are many options available, I'd highly recommend the iSight. The quality and features outperform any camera that I've ever used on a PC. (I switched to the Mac in November of last year)
The quality and clarity, along with the built in Autofocus and microphone is a real advantage over some of the camera's available.
I've used a number of the logitech cameras on the PC end and none of them compare to the iSight.
If you do choose something other than the iSight, keep in mind you MAY need a 3rd party application to meet compatibility requirements on your mac. (They range from $10 to $30)
Don't forget, if you or your family members are in school, you may qualify for the education discount and save $20 off the cost of the iSight bringing it down to $129.
Good luck on your choice!

  • Recommendations for webcam under $50?

    Looking to purchase a webcam to go with my 2011 mac mini, any recommendations for under $50?

      Any suggestions?Consider video monitoring equipment like that available from most home centers and electronics department stores.
    Baby monitoring gear may be even lower cost if you can tolerate the pink and blue paint with teddy bear pictures. Perhaps you could build the equipment in, paint it, or cover it with something less obtrusive if the appearance is a problem?

    I would really appreciate several replies/suggestions to compare compatability, quality and price issues.
    Thx in advance,

    In addition to specific devices your options are:-
    Any Firewire DV output (6 pin to 6pin) Camcorder
    Any Firewire Web cam
    Any USB cam that has Mac drivers and this Utility http://www.ecamm.com/mac/ichatusbcam/

  • Recommendations for a new monitor?

    Greetings,
    I'm looking for a new monitor for my Powermac G4 450 MHz AGP (sawtooth).
    I'm currently using a Formac Gallery 1740 after 6 years it's starting to faded out on me.
    I'd really appreciate any suggestion or Recommendations for a new one.
    Aisha K.

    I'm using a 17" LCD, Acer model AL1706 on my G4 400MHz AGP. Was plug 'n play and has been flawless over the years. I'm sure the current model numbers are different.

  • Need a printer recommendation for a small office

    hey folks, hoping someone might be able to suggest a recommendation for our business. We’ve had an OkiData color laser printer that’s lasted over 6 years but it’s been giving us some trouble over the last year and yesterday it stopped printing with an error we can’t resolve. Would have to bring a tech in to fix and we’d basically already decided that once this thing bit the dust we’d move on to something else. It’s time.
    We are looking for something in the $200-$400 range, would consider going a little higher if it was clearly worth it. We want something that connects wireless, prints quickly and reliably in Snow Leopard over an Airport Extreme network, decent color print quality is important but doesn’t have to be photo quality (we have an HP Photosmart for that kind of stuff), and it needs to have reasonable printing cost per page. We don’t print a tremendous amount of stuff, but we probably go through 100-200 pages a day and it adds up.
    Was looking at the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless and that looks like a nice unit except half the people who buy one hate it. Looks like HP quality control is lacking and if you get a good unit, great, but the odds are good you’ll get a lousy one.
    Also looking at the Brother HL-3070CW, but reviews say it has a high consumable cost.
    Basically, the more I look into this the more I head spins and now I've got myself wrapped around the axle and don’t know what to do.
    Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I would steer clear of the 500 express. Since you seem to be new to cisco products, I would use the opportunity and buy what most of your potential customers already have. Get yourself a pix/asa and a 2900 series switch as first poster suggested. If you are interested in certifications, you will need to learn the command line interface. The 500 express will do you no good as it is all gui. This is only my opinion of course. Oh, and did I see not expensive and cisco in the same sentence. :)

  • Recommendation for maintaining pricing in CRM when R/3 is also in landscape

    Hi,
    in out context we have already SAP R/3 in the landscape, all the pricing in done in R/3. lot of custom pricing routines are also written in r/3.
    now we in the process of implementing CRM and plan to do Quotations in CRM and replicate in SAP R/3 . what is the recommendation for such a scenario.
    do we replicate all pricing conditions/procedures in CRM? do we need to re-do all procedures in IPC?
    can we re-determine pricing in R/3 so that we can avoid such work in CRM? we are using configurable products in R/3.
    please share your thoughts/best practices and any document will be of help.
    thanks
    RH

    Hi Swaroop,
               The Assignment of Buisness Partner classification from CRM to R3 is purely based on Classification
    so your initial Entry
    I chose B as classification & Z001 as an account group which is a copy of 0001. System takes it.
    was taken by the system
    now when you tried to make another Entry by the same Classification
    chose B again & this time Z002 acc gp (copy of 0002), and system does not allow?
    it checks for the Existing Classification and so does not allow the same
    Delete the Previous Entry and then Try Entering the New Entry
    The System shall Take it
    Hope it Answered your Queries...
    Revert Back for any Doubts..
    Also Chk the Link for details:http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/04/4d9ac77b2b11d3b52f006094b9114a/content.htm

  • Any recommendations for a recovery software for my lost photos on my external drive?

    Would like recommendations for a reputable recovery software for my lost photos from my external drive that I used with my MacBook Pro.

    General File Recovery
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro.  Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.  Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk.  Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
    Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.

  • What are Best Practice Recommendations for Java EE 7 Property File Configuration?

    Where does application configuration belong in modern Java EE applications? What best practice(s) recommendations do people have?
    By application configuration, I mean settings like connectivity settings to services on other boxes, including external ones (e.g. Twitter and our internal Cassandra servers...for things such as hostnames, credentials, retry attempts) as well as those relating business logic (things that one might be tempted to store as constants in classes, e.g. days for something to expire, etc).
    Assumptions:
    We are deploying to a Java EE 7 server (Wildfly 8.1) using a single EAR file, which contains multiple wars and one ejb-jar.
    We will be deploying to a variety of environments: Unit testing, local dev installs, cloud based infrastructure for UAT, Stress testing and Production environments. **Many of  our properties will vary with each of these environments.**
    We are not opposed to coupling property configuration to a DI framework if that is the best practice people recommend.
    All of this is for new development, so we don't have to comply with legacy requirements or restrictions. We're very focused on the current, modern best practices.
    Does configuration belong inside or outside of an EAR?
    If outside of an EAR, where and how best to reliably access them?
    If inside of an EAR we can store it anywhere in the classpath to ease access during execution. But we'd have to re-assemble (and maybe re-build) with each configuration change. And since we'll have multiple environments, we'd need a means to differentiate the files within the EAR. I see two options here:
    Utilize expected file names (e.g. cassandra.properties) and then build multiple environment specific EARs (eg. appxyz-PROD.ear).
    Build one EAR (eg. appxyz.ear) and put all of our various environment configuration files inside it, appending an environment variable to each config file name (eg cassandra-PROD.properties). And of course adding an environment variable (to the vm or otherwise), so that the code will know which file to pickup.
    What are the best practices people can recommend for solving this common challenge?
    Thanks.

    HI Bob,
    As sometimes when you create a model using a local wsdl file then instead of refering to URL mentioned in wsdl file it refers to say, "C:\temp" folder from where you picked up that file. you can check target address of logical port. Due to this when you deploy application on server it try to search it in "c:\temp" path instead of it path specified at soap:address location in wsdl file.
    Best way is  re-import your Adaptive Web Services model using the URL specified in wsdl file as soap:address location.
    like http://<IP>:<PORT>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel<xirequest>
    or you can ask you XI developer to give url for webservice and username password of server

  • Which O/S upgrade is recommended for a MAC Book Pro17 with Intel Core Duo 2.16 GHz

    Which O/S upgrade is recommended for a MAC Book Pro17 with Intel Core Duo 2.16 GHz
    I am using os x 10.4.11.
    Do I need to upgrade to 10.5.xx? Will this platform suport 10.6.xx? If 10.6 will work do I need to install 10.5 first?
    Thanks...

    Hi. Your computer can be upgraded to either Leopard 10.5 or Snow Leopard 10.6. 10.6 will be much easier to find and will be less expensive. Leopard is not required prior to upgrading to Snow Leopard.

  • Hardware/software recommendation for video capture prior to edit on home ba

    i am a FCP user on a G5. i need to begin to load and initially edit video while traveling and then take that FC project file and load it onto my home based G5 for further work. i am considering a macbook and FC express to accomplish this task.
    my questions are:
    does it matter that the new macbooks are intel processors and my G5 is not intel based? will i have any compatibility problems with SW/file transfers.
    is FC Express the best SW to use for the load and initial edits?
    is there a best practice recommendation for what i want to do?
    thank you.
    dennis
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   use FCP HD 5.0.1

    FCP will run on a MacBook. It's not support, and the Studio is not supported because of Motion's graphics requirements, but quite a few people are running FCP on basic MacBooks. Just make sure it has enough RAM.

  • BlackBerry Desktop software recommendations for improvement

    BlackBerry Desktop software recommendations for improvement
    Recommendation:
    1, increase SMS and MMS module
    2, the SMS and MMS module to connect to the BlackBerry via Bluetooth

    While I love my BlackBerry Curve phone (and will most likely never go back to a phone running Windows Mobile OS), something that drives me absolutely crazy is the inability of the Desktop Manager software to monitor my activity in the Outlook client and autosync changes while my phone is connected via USB.

  • Recommendations for printer/all in one for use with 10.9+? Help!

    Does anyone have recommendations for a printer/all-in-one that will work with Mavericks? Monochrome (b&w) laser printer/all-in-one preferred. This is for a small office (5-8 people). Frequent pdf printing and 30+ page documents.
    Right now I'm looking at Brother MFC-7860DW (might need something with a larger capacity), Brother MFC-8710DW, Epson WorkForce WF-M1030 (again, may need something w/ larger capacity), and Canon Laser imageCLASS MF4770n or Canon Laser imageCLASS MF4890dw. Also have looked at Canon imageCLASS MF6160dw but reviews are iffy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

    Thanks for your help and input, diggernyc. If I was going to say that my question had been answered I certainly would have chosen your response and not my own. It seems silly that you can't undo marking a post as "solved".
    If anyone has suggestions, they are still appreciated. Thanks!

  • Note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g

    hi all DBA experts.
    I am not good familiar with Oracle database while i read a Note 830576 - Parameter recommendations for Oracle 10g. in which SAP General Recommendation:
    You should delete obsolete initialization parameters from the profile.
    To determine which obsolete parameters are currently set, proceed as follows:
    SQL> SELECT NAME FROM V$OBSOLETE_PARAMETER WHERE ISSPECIFIED = 'TRUE';
    when i execute above command then result is no rows selected
    while there are many parameters in above SAP Note which are already obsolete and not set in initSID.ora file.
    for exp.  the parameter OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ  is showing
    #### OPTIMIZER MODE
    #optimizer_index_cost_adj = 10
    as you know that this parameter is very important regarding System Performance.
    now please guide me . I have to set these parameter or no need while there is not showing any parameters against obsolete command.
    waiting you valuable reply.

  • Recommendations For Iphone Apps!

    Hello,
    Can I get some recommendations for  some apps I can use for my iphone.
    Thanks!

    You can Google a term such as "essential iPhone apps" or "must-have iPhone apps" and you will get lots of results. People vary as far as which apps they like the best. I also check out the App Store on a regular basis to see what the Top 100 apps are. If a lot of people are downloading an app, it makes me curious about it, and I'm more likely to check it out.
    Happy app hunting!
