Default Does anyone use a webcam?
Hi!
I am researching webcams and wondering how many VA's use them?
Does anyone know what the best webcam is?

Thanks
Stephanie

Hi Stephany
All of our laptops have a webcam as a standard built-in feature, but if I was going to purchase an external one I'd choose a Logitech brand camera. They have options in all price ranges, but of course you get what you pay for so if you treat it as a technology investment I'd suggest spending just a little more to get a really good one.

Hi Stephanie!
How did you like the webcam? I checked out your website and it is great. How long have you been a VA?

I like the webcam, a little lag time when moving around but after some researching unless you want to pay for a professional one, which is way off my budget; than it's to be expected.

Thank you for the site compliment!
We started in January of 95, there are two of us.

I am in the market for a webcam (have a Skype account - but from reading some threads - it looks like it is not too reliable). Are you willing to be a mentor to a newbie? I am starting out right now as a REVA, since I am currently an office manager for a real estate office and will be doing this part time. It would be comforting to know I had a go-to person as well as this forum! I live in NC.
