A perfect mid-level conference option for smaller teams
If you frequently have to hop onto video conferences (or even audio conferences), this is a great solution between using your built-in laptop camera and a full-blown standalone conference unit at the price. There doesn't seem to be many options at this price point and functionality.Pros:- Simple setup and works immediately.- Great camera - the height is perfect and the zoom and adjustable angle is a massive upgrade from laptop cameras- The standalone camera has many benefits versus having a device attached to your screen, including better for more than 1 person on a video con.- Mic quality is clear and very receptive- Speakers offer a great solution for a small boardroom- The little remote is a cool toy to adjust the camera without reaching for the unit during a conference (plus mute buttons)- Physical mute and call drop buttons on the device (versus trying to figure out on whatever conference software you're on where to mute your mic)Cons:- It's not very portable. It has a separate power supply, plus USB cable, so it is a bit of a mission to move around from room-to-room if that's what you need it for.- It can feel a tad dated with limited additional software (but it is designed to just work, and work with any video software)Overall, I would recommend this if it suits your needs and your budget.

Above average in all categories at a great price point.
I have not seen a better option in this price range. The picture quality is great! Others have commented that the camera is prone to breaking based on people turning it manually rather than using the remote. The PTZ also has controls on the base, so it is a real problem, but you can try to correct for it by proper training up front. The audio is not the best speakerphone, but the mic works well and it is better than laptop speakers. We installed this in a conference room directly beneath the TV. It looks good, is not obtrusive and has a wide enough angle to catch a large conference table that seats 6 comfortably and as many as 8. I have no doubt that there are camera/speaker phones with better zoom and better audio quality. However for this package and the seem less user install via USB, I can’t find a better value.

A solid performer even while being asked to work beyond it's design parameters.
This is being used to webcast community and club meetings from a large common room. It is really asking the camera/microphone to do more than it was designed to do but there are some workarounds to make this actually seem like a professional system. For those interested, here is what I did to make it suffice.First, if you are doing anything more than just peer to peer in a couple of small rooms, assign an operator to the system. They will be able to pan the camera appropriately, adjust volumes and sensitivities and, perhaps most importantly, "call on" people who raise their hand from remote locations via whatever conferencing software you are using.Our meetings use either a central microphone system or, if it's a smaller club meeting, a portable speaker system. The microphone on this is sensitive enough to pick up either system although the portable speaker system needs to be placed with 15-20 feet of the camera to get the best sound quality. The problem that we encountered was people wanting to speak remotely. The built in speakers are just not sufficient for a large room (nor were they ever intended to be) and even switching sound over to computer speakers (using the control panel function) isn't going to provide enough volume for a 2000 square foot open room.Fortunately, the unit has an audio out jack that is 3.5mm. We bought a 50' audio cable with the 3.5mm on one end and a standard 1/4" headphone jack on the other. That 1/4" jack plugs into our Anchor Audio portable speaker and so now the incoming sound is being piped through our portable system. You can only have one remote party speaking at a time (this is a GOOD thing!) and thus the need for an operator to call on people as they "raise their hands" to be heard.It took a couple of tries at webcasting some smaller meetings before we got all the settings correct for our environment but now we've had as many as fifty remote users viewing various neighborhood meetings and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. It's not ever going to mirror a professional $10K system like a Tanberg setup but for our needs, it works quite well.Why not five starts then? The video quality is not as good as expected and transitions aren't as smooth as they should be - we're running a consistent 25MPS wireless connection and so throughput isn't the issue. I wasn't expecting high-def but think the quality should be better. The ambient light sensor is about worthless - it doesn't read an average or even spot readings but seems to detect the brightest part of the picture and adjust everything based on that which darkens out the people almost completely. We've just learned to not have anyone sitting/standing directly in front of an unshaded window.The one thing that would really make this camera a five start device is to make the remote a radio signal instead of infrared. As it is, you have to be pretty much straight in front of the camera and within 10-15 feet for the remote to work. Because we use and operator, it's easier for them to sit right next to the camera with the controlling laptop but then it doesn't pick up the remote signal. With a RF remote, they could station themselves further away, completely out of the meeting and still control the camera.If you're trying to do remote conferencing on a budget, this appears, for the money, to be the best solution on the market. Our technology club did research several different cameras before settling on this one and it will serve its purpose for the next couple of years. By then, I suspect the professional type cameras that can follow the speaker and do a host of other things will have come down greatly in price and that's what this will eventually get replaced with.
