Creative Labs Live! Cam Socialize HD Webcam CustomerReview

This webcam was a breeze to install, and the software is pretty easy to use with a lot of fun filters, it has a built in mic (which is one less hassle to deal with), the stand is pretty versatile, and the video quality is okay… better than most webcams, but the competition isn’t very tough.

The filters include superimposed scenes, video distortions (mirrored screens, polarized images, sepia, slow frame rates, etc.), face tracking distortions (big eyes, small nose, square heads, etc.), face tracking decorations (hats, glasses, hair, masks, facial hair, etc.), and face tracking scenes (your face on a superhero/surfer/fish/etc. flying and it bobs and weaves as you move around). A lot of these can be combined to make some really interesting results and my 3 year old loves playing with these. There’s also a paint mode which lets you paint over your face or on your face and it can track with it… it’s a little too primitive to be really fun though. There’s also voice changing and avatars (in case you don’t want to be recognized at all as yourself).

So it’s a nice package and one that deserves at least 4.5 stars when compared to its competition in this price range, but I’d like to see these webcams get a lot better before I give one in this price range 5 stars. I think the software should allow you to view live video full screen even if it doesn’t capture at that resolution (the chat programs like Skype and Windows Live Messenger do let you do this with this webcam, but the included software doesn’t), and I’d like to see better manual controls (focus, brightness, fill-light, etc) than the standard ones that ship with windows (and are horrible). The HD is marketing talk more than anything else, even if this was 640×480 and blown-up to full screen I don’t think the difference would be that great. If you’re looking for a solid midrange webcam, then I think the Socialize HD will do trick.
