Microsoft LifeCam Cinema

Microsoft’s latest webcam, the LifeCam Cinema has moved into high definition territory by offering 720p resolution video capture at 30 frames per second. Don’t be scared off by the words high definition, as Microsoft clearly aims to price the LifeCam Cinema competitively, as it retails for $79.99 while featuring 4x digital zoom, a noise canceling microphone, autofocus ability and a glass lens. Constructed using aluminum (which makes it recyclable once you’re sick of it), the LifeCam Cinema is supposed on a notebook- and desktop-friendly stand. It comes with a special Windows Live call button for easy start up when paired with Windows Live Messenger.
