I just bought a Sony MiniDV cam which apart from working a treat with iMovie it makes an awesome webcam! I guess at $1800 it is an expensive webcam but hey it is versatile!<br><br>Need a laugh? Visit CreatorDude.com

gnfnr2k,<br><br>Yes, you can take a snapshot by Command/click/drag to the icon window of your Buddy List.<br><br>I've been running the camera for a couple days without a problem. I have it connected to a PCI USB adapter card in my 8600/G4/400. It also works with HackTV from Apple... a nice little app for capturing QuickTime movies from the camera.<br><br>alec - OFI
I was recently video conferencing with Mississauga and I can tell you that the image quality is pretty good, and the audio was fairly clear - although we both have cable modem service - which always helps, plus it was late at night when the internet traffic is much lighter.<br><br>

In 2008, UVC compliant USB webcams are what to look for, they're directly supported under OS X Tiger 10.4.9+ and 10.5 Leopard (and Windows Vista for that matter. A short list of absolutely http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com USB cams are listed here. No webcam drivers needed, those listed are just plug and play for iChat, Yahoo Messenger, ISPQ and more.<br><br>
