[phillai]

Not sure if this shuda gone to PC section but anyway...

Does anyone know if the smaller Sony EyeToy version 3 (silver version) webcam is actually any better quality wise or not over the 1st two versions?

I need to know as I'm giving one of them to my niece and I want the better quality one as a normal PC webcam.

Think the resolution is the same as previous versions, you must be able to check specs via a google search ?

I just installed it tonight... It's same res but it definitely looks sharper.
My other mate did the same and reckons the same too... Much sharper!

There are three major models:
SLEH-00031, SCEH-0004 & SLEH-00030 (Check on the bottom)


Hardware like this is developed continually and things such as different lenses, sensors can change without there being any announcements as such.

Also, each model requires different drivers for the PC so it may just be down to better drivers.
