Hi Guys,

suggest some good budget webcams with 1k to 1.5k :cool:

Go with Logitech c310 webcam. But first check whether your BB connection is able to send HD videos while video chatting.

c270 is also good, bit cheaper but the main problem is that it is a fixed focus type whereas c310 has an auto focus camera. And fixed focus is definitely a PITA in the long run. That's my personal opinion.

And 1mbps is sufficient but you have to check the latency of your connection. Also note that the speed/latency should be good @ both ends not just yours.

Yes, they have built in mics and c270 is selling at a great price at fk. You can go for other cheaper (by Rs100/200) models by Logitech also.

Logitech C270 is best for a 1MBPS net connection.
