CMU-BR100 Camera and Microphone for Skype
This review is from : Sony CMU-BR100 Camera and Microphone for Skype
Great Skype camera for my new TV . This is an awesome camera. The only thing that would make it better would be if it swiveled. Its on the top of a TV that is mounted on the wall so the view is a bit awkward, looking down to the floor. I think the ultimate Skype TV camera would have a swivel of some kind and a remote so we can pan back and forth across the whole room. Anyways, this one is the best you can buy today and we are very happy with the purchase.

Sony CMU-BR100 Camera and Microphone for Skype Reviews
great quality . At first I was quite annoyed at Sony for restricting the type of cam you could plug in using propriety firmware to prevent third party products but the quality of this cam and its sound system combined with the quality of Sony's TV made up for the, seemingly, inflated price tag. We have had wonderful hours of quality reception from all over the world and a noticeable difference from other cams used through the computer, the quality would, I think, match that of any top-line computer cam available and surpassed that of the Logitech cam I previously used on my Mac through the same TV, which is a Bravia LED, another superior product.

Sony CMU-BR100 Camera and Microphone for Skype Opinions
It's a Webcam . This is what you'd expect. It's a webcam. It works fine with my Bravia TV. The downside is that with Skype the image quality isnt super great in general. This uses a wide fov camera to capture the room since it doesnt know where your face is. So unlike with a laptop webcam where your face is really big fillign up the screen with this you appear really small in it. Could be good if a crowd wants to skype, but not so good if it's a single person to a single person. It is fun to be able to see the other person on the big TV though. What it really needs is some kind of zoom/tracking option but that would be more expensive...

Great Vidcam . Very good vidcam. Looks great on top of my Sony Bravia TV, Great sound and video quality and is really cool being able to Vidcall on a 55" TV. Super easy set-up TV is integrated for the camera (my 16yr old daughter did it all by herself without directions). It might be a little expensive but I believe it was a great investment. The only thing I think is missing is a lighting system. But it might be very annoying to stare into a bright light, I don't know the distance to the TV is much greater than when sitting at your laptop. Highly recommended !
Buy it. It works. . Comes with everything you need to mount it on top, down below, or whatever. Plugs in and works. Great for group Skypes and beats squishing together on a couch using a laptop.
Perfect! . This camera is smaller than I expected which is a great thing. Also has great resolution and its simple plug and play :) I have used it a few times and works perfectly!
Cons Review
Good but has some issues . I waited for this for a long time and invested 120$ on this web cam. Every time I use it, I can hear my own voice (it echo's). It gets very annoying. I dont know why this is happening. Don't waste 120$ on this. You are better off trying to use your laptop for skype. If Sony/skype can fix this issue i'll strongly recomend this.
