I knew WFBs would jump at the $20 option. You really should watch the video I cited to see the difference and understand why people are happy wit their $5000 purchase. Might even get you to spring for a $180 Kodak or a $900 Canon. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *

Actually, I was thinking more in line of a webcam that would attach to the monitor. Also looking for a decent mic for recording podcasts. Richard P.

You can check out podcasts you like and find out what they use. I'm pretty sure guys like Adam Curry keep lists of what they use online. If you not I'm sure you could email the podcasters and find out.

Re: [CGUYS] Web Cam, Microphone recommendations
Agreed. However, if you have a DV camcorder to use as a web cam, you'll look more fabulous than with the cheapo web cam. Don't run out and buy one just for the web. The cheaper camera might be better because it has terrible resolution, thus will use less bandwidth. You have to RTFM for the digicam to get those settings. Or use an iMac, MacBook or MacBook Pro, or any PC with a built-in camera and mic. Go to Radio Shack with a $20 bill. This is about right.
