QuickCam
®
Express.
V
ersatility.
Whether you hold it in your hand, place it on your monitor, or put it on your
desktop, QuickCam Express provides flexibility. Placing the camera on your monitor
usually provides excellent eye contact. But holding the camera makes it possible for you
to move up close to objects.
Lighting.
QuickCam Express works well with all types of room lighting. But for good
video quality, try not to place bright light (e.g., sunlight through a window) behind your
subjects. In harsh, contrasty light, you will appear too dark or your subject will lack detail.
Sof
tware Updates.
The Logitech
®
Int
ernet Update software automatically checks
the
Logitech web site, determines whether you have the latest version of the
QuickCam software
, and if an update exists, downloads the newer version for you.

check for new software updates, click the Help button on the
QuickCam software
Taskbar, then click “Check for Software Updates”.
