Detailed review
While this webcam is fairly pricey ($100), it is well worth the cost. I am currently using 4 of these at work for remote visual monitoring functions. Does not produce "true" HD (1080, 24/30p) due to limitations of USB interface, but preforms nicely at 1080 15p or 720 24p. Performs well in low light, but performs less stellar with backlit subjects, exhibiting some lens flaring. Audio is excellent, considering price and size. Design attaches nicely to most monitors, but lacks side to side articulation (not a big deal). Bundled software is mostly useless, but complies with Windows Imaging Architecture, so it should work as expected with most applications.
