Abstract: Video Review: The Microsoft LifeCam Studio 1080p HD Webcam offers fantastic quality HD video. This webcam looks amazing, has a flexible base, comes with a great mic, tripod mount, long USB cable and more. It's capable of 1080P, quality autofocus lens a...
Priced at anywhere between $99.99 - 139.99 US, the Microsoft LifeCam Studio isn’t exactly the least expensive webcam on the market, but it easily outperforms many of the offerings that you find at cheaper price points. The 1080p HD sensor provides re...
