this webcam is built with microphone. but i wanna ask can the webcam or the microphone be use itself??....which means can i sometimes only use the microphone of that? like sometimes i wanna record sounds. this webcam looks like the microphone can only be use with the webcam together since it doesnt have a line to connect to the sound card
 
Yeah, that's a Logitech Fusion webcam. And I think that your thought was correct in that the microphone can only be used with the camera. Although, if it comes up as a recording device in your audio/sounds area in the Control Panel, so much the better!
 
Even though it says it doesnt I think it still would:) , When I connected my old labtec webcam that said it couldnt be used as a seperate mic, I went into sound devices and it was listed there as a mic and picked up fine:D

does yours have a seperate line connect to the sound card or theres only one usb connect to ur computer?
 
Do you own it, or are you looking to buy it. Because if you own it just go in and check your audio devices and see if it is listed in there...

i dun own it......im looking to buy it......coz its description sounds really good. but if this thingy i cant only use the microphone n only can use when using the webcam to communicate on msn or etc......den i think i'll buy a cheaper webcam n buy a separate microphone.......
if it can use the microphone itself, thats great....coz i dun wanna put too many things on my desk....it's already really messy now...lol
 
yes i woud love to know too as i am going to buy the same webcam, if i cant use it as a mic during counter strike nd stuff like dat den i wouldnt get it.
 
Well, I don't know if this helps but it says on the description page for the cam that it comes with a headset...

but the thing is....i can buy a cheaper webcam with same 1.3 Megapixel plus a headset in a cheaper price......if that mic cant use by itself, than this camera is nothing......

but obviously i want this camera if the mic works itself....coz it looks nice and its easier to use since i can just speak without anything.....so plz dun tell me to buy the cheaper camera plus a headset and please someone find this problem out for me please.....i want a webcam asap

thx alot
 
everyone listen, i bought that webcam, and about the mic thingy, it can be use by itself, it works great.....so if you are planning to buy this kind of webcam, as 123justin, plz do so. it is not gonna show up on the sound card detecter, but it can be use by itself, i tried!
thx for everyone who replied
