The C370 webcam plugs into any available USB port. On a desktop, it is usually recommended to plug it into a USB port in the back of the computer rather than the front. The unit easily sits atop a computer monitor. It does require downloading the driver from Logitech's website for the camera to work (I installed it in an older Windows 7 computer); the exact site took a little digging to find online but thanks to a search on Google I was able to find and install the driver. Once the driver from Logitech is installed the webcam works well. This does have a fixed lens. Using the webcam with a videoconferencing program the video on the receiving end is slightly pixelated (just because it may be set on the transmitting computer on HD mode doesn't mean that the video will look like broadcast TV on the receiving end). However, any video from a computer can also be influenced by restricted bandwidth on the internet connection of the speed of the computer video itself so this may not necessarily be a fair evaluation. The downloaded software for the C370 allows one to adjust color and play with a few video effects for the fun of it. The microphone seems to work well. The bottom line is that this webcam is relatively simple to install and does work well for its intended purpose of videoconferencing online. Read full review

The camera gives better than expected image quality, but the software is horrible. When accessing it, the entire computer freezes until the software fully loads and that seems to take forever. I've not timed it, but at least 5 minutes. Some of the upload functions don't work either.

This webcam was easy to set up (actually, there's not set up at all) and provides great quality picture and sound. I have a little problem with the balance of the thing. If I put the wire behind the monitor, the camera falls behind; if I put the wire in front, it hangs in front of the screen. I've settled on using a huge binder clip. But, the price and quality make up for the inconvenience.

I wanted a webcam, and favor Logitech brand for computer accessories. I have a set of Logitech z5300 thx speakers, and couldn't be happier with them. So I bought the c270. The clip was easy to use, and the software downloaded splendidly, picture quality is overall not bad. Not great, but not bad either. Software is easy to use, and adjusting the picture is easy, and kinda fun to mess with. Basic features, like "follow face" and zoom functions are convenient, and kinda cool in my opinion. Pros: Everything works well, and the pictures is good. Easy to plug in, great for a laptop. I use it for our desktop. Good frame rates! Cons: If I had to find something wrong with this webcam, I'd say it's of the lower end products on the market. Not super sharp, and you do get what you pay for.Read full review
Ok, this is our first web cam and I'm gettin' pretty old (in other words I'm not very techie) I plugged it in, my computer recognized the C270 and downloaded drivers, then I went to Logitech's web site and downloaded the softwear for the camera. Then since the main reason we bought the C270 is so we could "Skype" with our Daughter and her family, I downloaded Skype and set up our account and in less than 30 minutes start to finish we were "skyping" with our Daughter and grand kids. very , VERY happy with this camera, 720p is fine by us. :)

I might suggest getting some type of lighting assistance because the quality of the camera is great but the coloring is fairly altered by the quality of the lighting in the room. Overall, it’s extremely easy to use, affixes to multiple surfaces very easily and, generally, has much better quality than the stock computer cameras, especially for the cost.

The C270 is a good standard webcam. Its an older model so it does not have the more modern lens aspect ratio and installed on a monitor on my desk, the only thing the other users will see is my giant looking face. A laptop cam or one that has different zoom or aspect ratios might be a good choice also. If your looking for a good standard webcam, this one will fit the bill.

The image quality isn't such a perfection but it's really good. The price is very good for a 720p web cam. The driver works fine on windows 7 and the software has nice effects on it. However, I ought to advise the built-in microphone is not very good. For those who require a flawless voice transmission, another microphone might fit better. The design of this webcam is quite different to me but I must admit it's rather practical because we can put it on the top of the monitor/screen.
Came only a few days late. These days, that's good. Instructions a bit vague, but still fathomable. No mention than I had to manually focus the camera. But I figured that out. Once done, it's done. Surprisingly good image quality. Decent sound quality. Works well with Zoom and Skype.

The small set of instructions that came in the box defined the web cam as a Plug 'n play, but could not get image. A quick google search sent me to download the application for the camera. The web cam has a great sound and image. I am really impressed by the quality to such low price. Great item.
