Using the Microsoft LifeCam software, you simply click a button and start recording. It’s perfect though if you often make some video comments or messages as it is really easy to record HD videos with the HD-5000. However, the facility is there assuming you have the Windows Live Messenger Wave 4 that supports HD video chat. I couldn’t see a way to change the functionality of this button so if you only make video chat with Skype, then you are out of luck.Ĭhatting in HD is not really a trend yet, mostly because of bandwidth issues, especially if you chat with friends in developing countries. On the top of the camera is a Windows Live Call button so you can have a quicker access should you want to make a video call to your Windows Live contacts. The clip is really flexible so you can be creative in deciding where to attach, according to your work area circumstances. The LifeCam HD-5000 also comes with a flexible rubber clip that also serves like a stand, so you can either clip the HD-5000 to your LCD monitor:
It is made in plastic unlike the LifeCam Cinema with an aluminum finish. Its shape is square alike, painted in black. The LifeCam HD-5000 is quite small in size and perfect as a good companion for your notebook. What you’ll miss from the LifeCam Cinema is the ClearFrame, Noise Cancelling, and a higher quality glass lens for a much cheaper price. Even though it’s half the price of the Microsoft LifeCam Cinema, the HD-5000 still delivers great clarity and performance, even in a low lit room.

Give the registry entry the name AutofocusOFF
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\LifeCam.Ĭlick New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value In the Start Search box, type "Regedit", and then press ENTER. There was a firmware update not sure if that may have fixed some issues, but I'm sure others exist.
If you don't for some reason, it will say webcam is in use if you are on webcam in your browser for example, you would have to stop broadcasting there, adjust your settings, then broadcast again. When you use compatibility mode it will let you launch it WHILE on webcam. Type lifecam and you will see Microsoft Lifecam. Lifecam will let you open settings under start menu. If you have windows 10 download LifeCam3.60 and the webcam drivers. You have to install in compatibility mode for Windows 7 or it gets REALLY messed up.
