It ships in July for $99.99 (Read our complete Quickcam Pro 9000 review). Our favorite one is the “old grainy film” effect that turns your webcast into a classic movie. Of course, Logitech has continually improved their software offering and the accompanying webcam utility allows user to apply image filtering effects in real-time. We haven’t done a side-by-side with our iSight, but we can say thattheoverall image qualityis better. The auto-focus is better than Apple’s, according to Logitech. However, to get the best sharpness possible, Logitech has included an auto-focus (yes, just like the iSight, although a bit late). Logitech included a 2Megapixel light sensor, which is quite better than most webcams. With a good lens, light comes in nicely but you also need a good sensor to actually capture that light correctly.

Obviously image quality is key for a imaging device so Logitech went to Carl Zeiss, a name that you might have heard before, as their optics are used by Nokia in their N73 or Sony on many of their consumer cameras. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a webcam that’s exciting, but the Quickcam Pro 9000 makes me want to revisit that category of devices.
