High points
Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 performs undeniably better than most of the other cameras available in the same price point. The Carl Zeiss Tessar optics used in this camera adds to the fantastic video capabilities and rich picture quality. With a sufficiently powerful computer (as stated in the requirements), full HD recording and HD video callings works effortlessly and without distortions or skipped frames. The webcam also works smoothly with Skype, the largest and by far the most popular VoIP service on internet and the provided Logitech Vid HD software.
Low points
When used under sufficiently bright light conditions, sometimes the RightLight 2 feature results in color distortions. When RightLight 2 is turned off from the driver settings, it works almost flawlessly. Other than that the camera works pretty fantastically. Unfortunately, Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 shoots HD video if only the minimum requirements are met, a probably turn off for many users.
Price
Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 is priced at $85 at official Logitech website while Amazon offers it at an astonishingly cheap price of $59.95.
