HP / Hewlett Packard HD-3110 Webcam
If you're looking for an affordable, versatile widescreen HD webcam with autofocus, then check out Hewlett Packard's HD-3110 webcam. Compatible with most Windows notebook and desktop computers, this webcam smoothly streams video at a true HD 720p widescreen resolution and up to 30 frames -per-second. It can also capture video at a range of smaller resolutions. Because the webcam features a built-in directional microphone and is compatible with AIM, Skype, Windows Live Messenger, and Yahoo Messenger, it is great for web chatting. With its HD resolution, built-in microphone, and built-in image enhancing technologies, this webcam is also great for creating, emailing, or posting video blogs. For chatting or blogging, the webcam employs a face-tracking technology that keeps you in the center of the picture. Plus, the webcam can take still pictures at an interpolated resolution of 5.7MP. Because of its USB 2.0 interface, you can connect it directly to your computer's USB port, install the drivers for optimized use with the webcam, and then start using it.
In addition to these features, HP has also ensured that the camera is easy to use and adjust as you use it. It features an autofocus technology so you can chat or blog hands-free without having to constantly worry about whether your image is in focus or not. The webcam also features a 5x zoom, can pan, tilt, and has three quick launch buttons. One button launches your favorite IM program, another button launches a snapshot photo mode, and another launches a video recording mode. For getting the most from your webcam, you will find included ArcSoft's Webcam Companion 3, their Magic-i Visual Effects 2, and their ShowBiz software.

Comments about HP / Hewlett Packard HD-3110 Webcam:
Really works good. I had another name brand HD autofocus webcam before (more expensive), but it kept trying to focus all the time, even if you moved an inch away from it (Anoying!!!!!). I replaced it with this HP webcam and gave the other one to someone I didn't like, LOL. This the second HP HD3110 webcam I have, and I'm very happy with it.
