Episode description

Jeff Carlson wraps up his look at the hits and misses of webcams with two more examples, an unintentional example of good and not-so-good audio, and thoughts on matching your needs and expectations with what is available in your laptop, in the dedicated webcam devices, and whether using an iPhone is for you.
