The editors didn't like
Remote monitoring doesn't work with every FTP server
Video quality lags behind other webcams
Auto focus and face tracking struggle to adjust when facing bright lights
This is the best Web camera that we laid our hands on. It has Auto focus that works really well, 1.3 MegaPixel native resolution and 8 MegaPixel interpolated, which will be good for anyone. It can record video, it has great sound and the most important...

Can do remote monitoring and time-lapse video; ball-and-socket joint provides flexibility; camera rotates 270 degrees; stand works equally well on top of desk or atop a monitor.
Image quality struggles in low light; buggy software; face tracking feature is useless.
If remote video surveillance or time-lapse photography is something you want to do with a Webcam, the Creative Live Cam Optia AF is a good pick. For all others, Logitech has a better (and slightly cheaper) Webcam.

Abstract: There are two distinct kinds of webcam: basic, functional devices and those such as the Optia AF, which throw in a plethora of extras for those spending lots of time recording themselves in front of a PC. The Optia AF is very adjustable - the stand ...
The Optia AF is a solid webcam from a vendor that certainly knows its business. Impressive-quality still images and rich software functionality combine to make this a firm choice for taking pictures or securing an empty property. Unfortunately, a judd...

Chez Creative, les webcams se suivent mais ne se ressemblent pas. La Live! Cam Optia AF succède à la Live! Cam Optia avec quelques bonus. Tout dabord, elle embarque un capteur CMOS supportant une définition vidéo de 1600 x 1200 pixels ou de 3200 x 240...
