Thanks to the aluminium casing and the low weight, you can take the LifeCam Cinema with you anywhere. It also looks smart and makes good video and audio recordings. At a current price of around 50 euros, the camera is worth every penny. A functioning and not annoying autofocus, digital support and a good test result give the LifeCam Cinema our Excellent Hardware Award.

The highlight of the Microsoft LiveCam is the excellent sound quality and the 16:9 format. Others offer more in terms of resolution.
