Logitech Webcam Review & Giveaway

Thanks to modern technology, there is a new wave of teaching and learning taking place in classrooms all over the world. Logitech webcams offer children of all ages the opportunity to explore new ideas and concepts through a whole new light. Older age kids who take online college courses can now talk to their professors. Middle school and high school kids can discuss their assignments with their classmates. Logitech Webcams make it easy for students to work on group projects without trying to find the time to meet.

Logitech_HD_Pro_Webcam_C910

The Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 stands out against the growing crowd of webcams. Now you can accomplish more with breathtaking Full HD 1080p video recording. The HD Pro Webcam is easy to install, easy to use and captures crisp, vivid, crystal clear videos and photos. 

The C910 is long, slim, and rectangular. It’s sleek design is just under an inch deep. It mounts snugly on the top or side of your monitor, and remains securely in place with the attached adjustable arm.

logitech-hd-pro-webcam-c910Setup is very easy. If you already have video-calling software installed (such as Skype) , you simply plug in the USB cable and you are ready to begin using. If you don’t have video software installed, you would download the Vid HD which is included on a CD. This part of the setup only took a few minutes and once it was complete, I was ready to being using.

This webcam records in full HD 1080p and takes 10-megapixel still photos with a state of the art Carl Zeiss optics lens. The resolution can be adjusted down from 1080p to 360p. It features an autofocus lens, a dual built-in microphone for optimal video chatting, premium automatic light correction, plus more!

logitech_webcamSince I am a beginner when it comes to webcams, I chose to use automatic settings. This was very quick and simple. Auto-focus was turned on and all I needed to do was press the button to record video, take a picture, or make a call.  Advanced users may prefer to manually control the settings such as Follow My Face, Right Light, Right Sound, and Auto-Focus. Additionally, anyone can modify the advanced settings which include Exposure, Gain, Brightness, Contrast, Color Intensity, and Anti-Flicker.

The HD Pro Camera has excellent sound quality. The dual microphones picked up my  voice perfectly and everyone I have talked to via video chat says they can hear me as clear as if I was standing in the same room as them.

Pro_Webcam_C910 The Logitech webcam controls are very easy to use. With the press of a button, you can easily zoom in or zoom out, and pan in any direction which are convenient for focusing on another person or object. After you’ve recorded a video or taken a photo, you can conveniently upload your video to YouTube and Facebook. The Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 included Magix software which allow you to edit your photos and videos before uploading.

I cannot tell you how much I have been enjoying this webcam. The only improvement I would suggest is extending the cord length. It’s generous at 5-foot, but it is a rather tight fit with the way my computer and desk are set up. Other than that, this is the perfect webcam - the quality is superb, the price is right and it has simplified my life in so many ways!

Review- New Logitech Fantasy Collection

Logitech focuses on innovation and quality while creating products to provide people with a more enjoyable experience of the digital world. With products sold in nearly every country in the world, Logitech’s leadership in innovation now encompasses a wide variety of PC navigation products in categories such as internet communications, gaming, digital music, and home entertainment control. Self expression can be found in everyday objects, which is why Logitech created the new innovative Logitech Fantasy Collection.

Logitech-Fantasy-Mouse-Collection

The new Logitech Fantasy Collection gives us the opportunity to truly express ourselves. For the longest time, the only options for computer mice were black and white. I don’t know about you but my personality isn’t cold or black and certainly isn’t boring or white.

The mouse I have been using for years is quite nice. It’s a laser mouse. It is a corded mouse, but it doesn’t stick like some mice tend to do. My mouse features a scroll button which makes it very easy to navigate my way through the internet. The mouse I have been using for years is the Logitech MX300. Logitech-MX300-MOUSE

I love everything about my current Logitech mouse. It’s very comfortable in the left hand as well as the right. It is lightweight and very functional. The one thing I would change is the color. The MX300 would be a great mouse for the office or for men, but I wanted something fresh, playful, fun and colorful – something to really describe me. Fortunately, the new Fantasy Collection allows me to do just that.

Our new dreamy colors and fanciful designs were inspired by everything from architecture to acrobatics, evoking moods from wild to serene. We’re sure you’ll find one you can call your own. There are more than 15 more thoughtfully crafted colors and patterns, each with a story to tell. Each seeks to add an artful touch to your everyday tasks. Express yourself with a Logitech mouse as colorful as you are.

For my review, Logitech sent me their Red Tendrils Wireless Mouse M310 from the new Fantasy Collection.

Logitech-M310

The M310 is a wireless mouse which requires one AA battery (included). The battery is inserted into the bottom compartment of the mouse and was very easy to install. The M310 is lightweight and it’s contoured design features soft rubber grips making it comfortable for right hand or left hand use.

The Red Tendrils design is red with hints of shimmer and a beautiful darker red swirl design. I love the design I was sent.  I am so excited to see the new Fantasy Collection. Finally, a mouse full of personality.

The M310 mouse includes a small nano-receiver to help provide a reliable connection. The wireless, USB nano-receiver is always ready for use. Plug it in once and forget about it. 

System Requirements

Windows-based PC

Mac computer

Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7

Mac OS X 10.4 or later

USB port

USB port

 
Like my previous Logitech mouse, the M310 also includes a convenient scroll button. I love this feature as it makes navigating through hundreds of websites and blogs much easier.
 
Logitech suggests a 12-month battery life. I have only had this mouse for a couple of weeks now. Even if it doesn’t last quite one year, 1 AA battery is cheap enough to replace.
 
This is my first cordless mouse. I must say, I am much happier with my cordless mouse. It moves very freely and easily and I never have to worry about the cord becoming unplugged (which happens a lot with my cord mouse). Overall, I am very happy with my M310. The mouse is smooth and very comfortable when using for a short time period or even extended periods of time. The cost of this little beauty is just $29.99. This is such a great value for such an incredible mouse. I definitely recommend this mouse!
