Perhaps try a different program, like iMovie or Photo Booth. I'm not an expert at this particular piece of hardware as I don't use it on a regular basis. Try contacting HP and see what they say. I think it is the same camera as the 9000, just in a different box. Also, it may not be the camera that is causing the blur, but maybe the compression you are using to save the video -- but that depends what you are using to record and what your settings are. Try playing with it a bit. What are you using to record? Perhaps try a different program, like iMovie or Photo Booth.

If the 9000 (webcam) can do it on a PC (my brother's), I'm sure there must be a way on my Macs. I can't carry around & set up my large DV cam everywhere I have ideas. I just thought you might know. thanks I’m a Mac guy for years, I have a music studio here in Hollywood.

I'm not sure. I think if you are concerned about that level of quality you can't expect it from a Web cam meant for video chatting. I'd go with a good Firewire camcorder. Motion blur? I’m not sure.

I'm trying to record guitar & piano ideas with no hand motion blur (like I can with my Sony DV). My brother can use his 9000 on his PC with Window Movie Maker.. and it's totally crisp with no blur. thanks Eric Hi Gary,

Many thanks for such a great resource. I'm a Mac Pro user and was checking out the logitech as a webcam only but your info on pod casting use was a timely pro-tip. Current UK price at amazon is £62 so compares very favourably with a second hand iSight off eBay (today one went for £92 + shipping!). I'm interested in podcasting for occasional business support - have you done a video on mac podcasting cameras and microphones yet?
