The iSight was my first experience with a webcam, I never realised how crappy the rest of 'em were ;) Wow… The iSight was my first experience with a webcam, I never realised how crappy the rest of ‘em were ;)

I figured if I'm going to sit around talking to myself I might as well record it :) Tim— I should point out that I have a penchant for working in low light (don't like bright light or loud noise) so it is pretty tough for a CMOS censor to cope with. Still I expected there might have been some sort of improvement in the last ten years. jo— that was me doing the noddies… I figured if I’m going to sit around talking to myself I might as well record it :)

I would have participated with my own unbelieveably crap $29 web cam that crashes by free-beta-preview video version of skype at least 20 times before it stabiliz(s)es and output's (from my relatively hacked together quicktime component driver) non-apple sanctioned crap video noise from a small player chinese video chip manufacturer. Oh, and i'm running Mac OS X and iSights are too expensive - but at least i know why;-) did you phase shift your voice slightly? you made me laugh you funny man.

Yes, I think the iSight is basically a decent video camera minus the recording part. I change speed/pitch slightly to reduce the overall length and to differentiate the 2 voices slightly.
