Ask Hondacity or V2-V3. The one they have used in their live stream produced nice pictures i think.

I keep seeing this one come up on reviews but its a little high in price
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826105226

They have the same one on amazon for $30 with free shipping, going to live chat with newegg maybe i can get a price match.

Also found this one
720p with micro phone

You said you are limited to $30 but go with the Microsoft HD. That is the one I have and the one I was going to provide a link to you. Top notch camera.

I just picked up the Rosewill Black golf webcam for $20 and comes with free usb numberpad (doubles as a 2 port usb hub)


Image looked surprisingly clear but are limited to 640x480 at 30FPS.

Should be up on livestream tonight

I saw a comparison between the life cam and the logitech 9000
they said the life cam is a resource hog but it is cheaper

MicroShart and Logitech are your best bets...

There are alot of great webcams out there but when it comes to broadcasting a show you are only limited to whatever they offer for free broadcasting. To broadcast in high def you are going to have to pay a hefty membership premium. You might look into getting a separate mic one day as pretty much all mics on webcams blow. Newegg has a pretty good one for $20.

The real test is viewing the FPS counters in the benches, most cant define the numbers. For those who have web cams should try an post back with the camera you have.
