    "Like to hear more about the high resolution video modes"

    by flydef on June 19, 2006

    Pros: 1280x1024 SXGA High Definition Video

    Cons: FPS. Could someone please post FPS specs?

    Summary: Suprised more was not mentioned about this models 1280x1024 SXGA high definition video mode, the image quality and frames per second.
    The reviewer states that "Video records at a maximum 30 frames per second at resolutions ranging from 160x120 to 1.3 megapixels, which is standard for this class of Webcam"
    This is perhaps the first consumer webcam to offer that kind of resolution, it is the first in it's class. There is nothing standard about it. That's also a pretty ambiguous statement about the FPS. I know microsoft doesn't even mention FPS on their specificaion sheet. Could you please let us know the specific max FPS for each resolution? Thank you.

    Cnet, any response to the VX-6000 being the only webcam in its class with 1280x1024 SXGA High Definition Video @ a true 1.3 Mp as the previous reviewer pointed out? He posted on June 19 and it is now July 11... Still no answer to the FPS (Frames Per Second) question? Anyone...?

    The high def. video seems like a worthwhile option, certainly better than the standard 640 X 480 used by its competitors, but is it worth the extra cost and just how clear is the actual picture with the increased resolution?

    Any additional info on these few things would be great, Thanks.

    P.S. Actual specs on the Specifications tab would be nice
