A webcam designed specifically for notebook computers was the intent with Microsoft’s LifeCam NX-6000.

The design of the NX-6000 webcam let’s it fit nicely on top of the notebook lid, needing no special attachments or stands so it is easy to bring along and easy to attach. A microphone is also built in so that a separate device or connection is not needed.

The LifeCam has a high definition 7.6 megapixel camera for still photos, and can record high def video at 2.0 megapixels for a 1600×1190 pixel picture. The camera also has 3x digital zoom for pictures and video to allow you to be up close and personal with the person on the other end, and the 71 degree wide angle lens let’s the whole family fit in the picture at once.

Being a Microsoft product, it only makes sense that the LifeCam NX-6000 integrates with Windows Live Messenger, utilizing all the features of Messenger including Easy Call and Free Worldwide Internet Calling. This camera is a great solution for the notebook traveler or anyone who wants to stay in close personal contact with others with a quality product in a compact, easy to bring and setup design.
