Compact and portable, the C510 HD Webcam from Logitech is a feature-loaded webcam that's great for use with your laptop while you're on the go. This webcam captures video in a vivid widescreen HD 720p on most major IM programs and on the included Logitech Vid HD video calling software. It features their built-in RightLight 2 technology so that your webcam will produce the best possible image, even in low-light conditions. The webcam has a built-in microphone with RightSound technology that neutralizes acoustic noise in the background so your conversations sound clear and natural. In terms of video chatting, the webcam is compatible with many IM applications, particularly Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, and AOL Instant Messenger. Aside from chatting, the webcam can also record video and upload it to YouTube or Facebook with the webcam's one-click upload button (you'll need to first install the included software). If you have a video blog, the one-click button can come in very handy. Beyond video, the webcam can also take snapshot photos at a software-enhanced resolution of 8MP. It's compatible with your Windows PC and is ready for use as soon as you connect it through your computer's USB 1.1 or 2.0 port. A USB 2.0 port is recommended, though.
For getting more from your C510 HD Webcam, you will also receive a free 60-day trial of Sensible Vision's FastAccess facial recognition software, Logitech's Vid HD and Video Effects software and MAGIX's Photo Manager 9 software and their Video Easy software.

It does so by having the webcam scan and recognize your face. Logitech's VID HD is great for making easy, hassle-free video calls to your friends while their Video Effects software allows you to add neon splashes, fish-eye distortions, avatars, filters, and other special effects to your video calls.
