  • NegativeHardly any equipment

The Microsoft LifeCam HD-3000 impresses in the test above all with its low price. Apart from the still very good sound quality, however, the webcam only offers the bare essentials without any special extras. This is only enough for an adequate equipment rating. The picture quality has strengths and weaknesses, but is only satisfactory on average. There are better alternatives for the price.
