What's the best webcam for Skype (with a built-in mic)? Any suggestions?

I use the red Hue HD with Skype and really like it for its simplicity (and because it works on my Mac and in Boot Camp). What kind of features are you looking for? If you list more perhaps we can help!

I have used the front facing camera by making Skype calls. It works perfectly.

As far as I know.....google tv pulled the plug on all chat cameras! They now refer you to Skype, and no, this camera is not compatible with Skype on your tv. I went thru this. Only current solution is an actual Skype camera for your tv. More expensive. Sorry!

I have been able to use mine like a webcam by plugging it in then holding the button. Device manager sees it as a GVD and it works with skype.

No there's a mic already built in and it works with Skype, chatroulette, and the Lenovo video capture thing.

Using Skype you can make video calls. Make sure your camera and mic are setup to list the Rocketfish camera and mic in the video configuration screen as some laptops with integrated webcam setup that as default.It works great with WinXP and Win7.

well actually no it doesn't include a software with the Mic. But for a mic to work along with your webcam, i think any Mic can do this. So yes this should work with your webcam. I am assuming that you want a mic to work for Skype or other telecommunication programs along with your camera and my answer is based on this assumption. I am using this mic on windows 7 with no problems.

I'm looking for a camera and microphone I can use at work then take home to use on my home computer, to communicate with my daughter oversees. I'm new to all this and realy need guidance. THANKS!

Too my knowledge there isn't one. Computer has built in microphone and camera. Using Skype, the computer automatically defaults to the built in's.

Skype comes pre-installed, My logitech C615 webcam worked fine with it also.

Just tried it. Microphone works great for voice only phone calls on Skype. Also works well for video calls.

It does have a built in webcam. I am not sure about microphone. I use a headset for my work. Otherwise it's a beautiful machine! I bought 2 of them!

I've only used this for a real video camera. I don't think it works with Skype unless you were using a Sony video camera for your conversation, which would seem to be a big mess to me. Better keep this with the camera itself. Sounds great in that regard.

I am using the monitor now. It has a webcam but does not have a microphone with it. But it's no biggie, can get a decent microphone under $5.00 or use a headset.

Yes Aspire Ve-551-8469 certainly has a webcam, and the quality is superb, 1280 x 720. I used it last Friday to create a video at http://gt4.me/teams. I recorded that using the Acer Crystal Eye software that comes with the system, output it from video editor at 854 x 480 for YouTube. I used a separate analog microphone so I don't know microphone quality. I have used Acers for years and buy only them now, great systems!

Hi, it does not have a camera for SKype. It does have usb ports. It think it does have an sd slot. Cheers!
